The drama from Astronomer CEO Andy Byron’s kiss cam continues, with social media users racing for information. A viral TikTok post just went around that Andy Byron’s daughter, Marina Byron, had made a public statement about the cheating accusations. But the thing is: Andy Byron does not even have a daughter.
Did Andy Byron’s Daughter React To Kiss Cam Scandal?
The video, which circulated on TikTok, showed a female individual responding emotionally to the Byron scandal and Astronomer’s Head of HR, Kristin Cabot. A few users commented that the female was Marina Byron, allegedly his daughter, and long overdue to react on the scandal. Internet detectives and fact-checkers were quick to call out the lie.
The female in the video is Marina Diamandis, a British singer-songwriter who records under the stage name Marina and the Diamonds. The video was from an unrelated interview where she talks about music but has nothing to do with Byron or the viral concert incident.
A report by India Times stated that Andy Byron and his wife, Megan Kerrigan, have two sons and no daughters. Photos from Megan’s personal social media accounts show the family together, and none include a daughter. The report even quoted xAI’s chatbot, Grok, which weighed in, labeling the Marina Byron claims as incorrect and misleading.
The scandal comes after the now-infamous incident of a Coldplay concert in Boston when Byron and Cabot were spotted on the venue’s kiss cam. The two were seated in extremely close proximity, with Coldplay lead singer Chris Martin cracking jokes that the pair seemed to be either intensely in an affair or very shy. The incident went viral in the online community immediately, as people cried foul over the nature of their relationship particularly since the two are reportedly married to other individuals.
Up until now, Andy Byron has not publicly addressed the incident. His wife, however, has made a small but widely interpreted move: she deleted Byron from her surname on Facebook soon after the scandal erupted.
