If you've been online in the past 24 hours, then you've probably heard some rumblings about an incident that occurred at a Coldplay concert.

But if you aren't familiar, let's play a quick game of catch-up: During a Wednesday show at the Gillette Stadium in Boston, the venue cameras randomly highlighted various audience members by showcasing them on the jumbotron, just like at sporting events.

But things took a turn when a man was captured holding a woman from behind, as they both smiled and swayed to the music. What looked like a sweet moment quickly became awkward once they realized they were on the big screen. The two instantly separated, with the woman covering her face and turning in the opposite direction, while the man attempted to crouch down, out of the camera's view.

When Coldplay's frontman, Chris Martin, first spotted them, he sweetly announced, "Aww, look at these two." But when they went their separate ways, he playfully added, "Uh oh, what? Either they're having an affair or they're just really shy."

The two were later identified on social media as Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and the AI and data firm's chief HR officer, Kristin Cabot. While the alleged affair, let alone the status of their relationship outside of the workplace, has yet to be confirmed, it was revealed that Andy is married with two kids, while Kristin finalized her divorce in 2022.

A purported apology statement from Andy began floating around the internet, but it has since been ruled as "fake."

And in true X (better known as Twitter) fashion, people online couldn't help but make jokes out of the situation:

Neither Coldplay, Andy, nor Kristin has publicly addressed the matter.

BuzzFeed contacted Chris's reps for additional comment, but did not hear back by the time of publication.
