Bethenny Frankel’s Shocking Six-Word Response to Coldplay Couple’s Viral Concert Moment

Bethenny Frankel had a salty response to a video of a tech CEO caught getting physical with his HR boss on a kiss cam at a Coldplay concert in Boston’s Gillette Stadium on Wednesday.

The clip went viral thank to the couple’s freak out on camera, and it was subsequently reported that both are married to other people, though public records suggest that they live at separate addresses from their spouses.

In a video posted to Frankel’s TikTok account, the 54-year-old former Real Housewives Of New York City star boiled her feelings down to just six words.

‘What the f*** were you thinking?!’ she shouted in a closeup selfie videos she shot in bed on Thursday, in which she marveled that anyone carrying on an alleged affair would do so at such a high-profile venue.

‘What’s wrong with a Motel 6? Who could you not run into at a Coldplay concert?,’ Frankel continued, before listing off potential people that Andy Byron, the CEO of the AI tech startup Astronomer and the company’s Human Resources chief Kristin Cabot could have run into at the concert.

‘Your third-grade teacher, your gynecologist, your college fraternity brother, your daughter’s cheerleading captain,’ Frankel said, adding that a Coldplay is about as mainstream as events get.

Coldplay frontman Chris Martin drew attention to the couple on the jumbotron before they tried to scurry out of view

‘It’s not like it’s a Metallica concert,’ she said, suggesting that a metal show would have a more specialized fanbase.

Frankel continued to joke that ‘Dan from accounting’ or ‘Jane from HR’ could easily have been at the show.

‘Like, what the f*** were you thinking?!’ the reality star asked rhetorically. 

‘Dude, Astronomer… The “Sky Full Of Stars,” that’s for shizzle,’ Frankel said, referencing Coplay’s 2014 single A Sky Full Of Stars. ‘What the f***?’

In the viral clip that set her off, Byron and Cabot were seen looking affectionate as he stood behind her and wrapped his arms around her.

But when they realized they had been captured on the stadium jumbotron and were visible to everyone at the concert, Cabot flashed a shocked expression before covering her face with her hands and twirling around to turn her back to the camera.

Meanwhile, Byron comically ducked down out of frame as Coldplay frontman Chris Martin 

‘Either they’re having an affair, or they’re just very shy,’ the singer said as the audience erupted in laughter.

‘I don’t know what to do,’ Martin added as he struggled to hold back his own laughter. ‘Oh s***, I hope we didn’t do something bad.’ 

In the comments to Bethenny’s rant, one person craving an update joked, ‘To be in that office after this lol. I want to be a fly in the wall.’ 

‘They were there with a bunch of coworkers. It seems like the only person who didn’t know was the wife,’ another user wrote.

On Friday, Byron’s company finally responded to the controversy in a statement.

‘Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability,’ it said.

‘The Board of Directors has initiated a formal investigation into this matter and we will have additional details to share very shortly.’ 

Since the video went viral, DailyMail.com has revealed what Byron appeared to say just after realizing he was on camera, thanks to a professional lip reader. 

Byron, who is married to Megan Kerrigan Byron, was believed by some fans to have issued an apology for the display on social media, but it appears to have been a parody account posting a fake statement while posing as a journalist.

In the wake of the viral clip, a statement Byron previously made announcing Cabot’s appointment to her position resurfaced.

‘At Astronomer, our people are the most valuable asset in helping our customers do more to gain a competitive advantage with their data,’ he said.

‘Kristin’s exceptional leadership and deep expertise in talent management, employee engagement, and scaling people strategies will be critical as we continue our rapid trajectory.

‘She is a proven leader at multiple growth-stage companies and her passion for fostering diverse, collaborative workplaces makes her a perfect fit for Astronomer.’ 

Cabot also contributed to the statement, in which she explained that she ‘preferred to think of her role as people strategy versus traditional human resources, as the real magic happens when you align the people strategy with the business strategy.’
