The internet has been swirling with speculation ever since Astronomer CEO Andy Byron was spotted getting close with HR head Kristin Cabot at a Coldplay concert. The now-viral moment ignited a firestorm of cheating rumors and public backlash. While Byron has stayed silent, eyes quickly turned to his wife, Megan Kerrigan, to see if she would break her silence.
Did Megan Kerrigan really issue a formal statement?
Initially, Megan removed Byron’s last name from her social media handles and appeared to deactivate her profiles. But now, she seems to be back on Facebook, and this time with a deeply emotional message to her followers. On what appears to be a new Facebook page labeled as a ‘digital creator,’ Megan wrote a heartfelt note expressing the pain of betrayal and the overwhelming nature of the public attention.
“I needed silence. I needed space. I needed to breathe,” she wrote, referring to the days she disappeared online. She thanked supporters for their kind messages and admitted the past few days have been “incredibly heavy.” While she didn’t directly confirm or deny the incident between Byron and Cabot, Megan made it clear she’s still processing everything and will speak publicly when the time feels right.
What about the second statement going viral online?
A separate, far more direct statement allegedly from Kerrigan is also circulating online. In that version, she outright confirms the betrayal, calls Andy’s behavior “disgusting,” and states she has decided to leave him. However, this message has not been posted on the verified page or any confirmed profile linked to Megan. As of now, it remains unverified, and several online users have expressed doubts about its authenticity.
Until Megan herself confirms or denies the second statement, only her Facebook post stands as her official response. For now, she’s asking for space and urging the public to be wary of impersonators and fake messages.
