The Human Resources Director at American technology company Astronomer, Christine Cabot, has resigned after the sensational incident that occurred during a Coldplay concert, where she was filmed hugging the company's former CEO, Andy Byron.
The footage, which was broadcast by a so-called "kisscam" during the concert, showed the pair embracing and trying to hide once they realized they were on the giant screen. The couple's reaction has sparked a flood of comments, memes and mockery on social media.

Even Coldplay singer Chris Martin himself commented on the scene, saying humorously:
"They're either in a relationship, or they're just really shy."
Cabot's resignation comes on the heels of Andy Byron's departure as CEO last week. Astronomer, a data technology and workflow automation company, had earlier announced that he would be suspended while an internal investigation was conducted.
Sources within the company have said that the incident had caused considerable discontent within staff, particularly due to the nature of the alleged relationship and the senior positions that both held in the management hierarchy.
