Social media can bring even the most private of lives into the spotlight within seconds, even when the people involved in the incident are not willing for it. That’s exactly what happened to Astronomer CEO Andy Byron during a Coldplay concert that turned into a viral scandal. A brief shot on a kiss cam caused a firestorm online, where the short clip of the former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and the company’s HR Head were seen embracing each other. Resultantly, it not only had consequences in their professional lives but also their personal lives. This incident also pulled Byron’s wife, Megan Kerrigan into the limelight.Meghan built her life away from the limelight in the field of education, while supporting her family and professional life quietly. Amid the series of recent incidents, Megan has not made any public statements on the same.
