The IT company CEO captured in a widely circulated video showing him embracing an employee at a Coldplay concert has resigned.

Andy Byron resigned from his job as CEO of Cincinnati-based Astronomer Inc., according to a statement posted on LinkedIn by the company Saturday.

“Astronomer is committed to the values and culture that have guided us since our founding. Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability, and recently, that standard was not met,” the company said in its post on LinkedIn.

The move comes a day after the company said that Byron had been placed on leave and the board of directors had launched a formal investigation into the Jumbotron incident, which went viral. A company spokesman later confirmed that it was Byron and Astronomer chief people officer Kristin Cabot in the video.

The short video clip shows Byron and Cabot as captured on the Jumbotron at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, during a Coldplay concert Wednesday.

Lead singer Chris Martin asked the cameras to scan the crowd for his “Jumbotron Song,” when he sings a few lines about the people the camera lands on.

“Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy,” he joked.

Internet sleuths identified the man as the chief executive officer of a U.S.-based company and the woman as its chief people officer.

Pete DeJoy, Astronomer’s co-founder and chief product officer, has been tapped as interim CEO while the company conducts a search for Byron’s successor.

Aaron Phypers claims Denise Richards Cheated

Aaron Phypers is claiming that Denise Richards manufactured allegations of abuse as a means to distract from an affair that he uncovered earlier this year.

Less than two weeks after filing for divorce from the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” alum, 52-year-old Phypers told TMZ during a virtual interview that he learned his wife was cheating when he found illicit texts on her laptop back in February.

He says he confronted Richards, who begged Phypers not to leave her, assuring him she was “so sorry” and “won’t do that again.” They decided to stay together, but Phypers says he later found texts going up until late May.

Fast-forward to July 4 weekend, Phypers claims Richards stole his phone and denied having it — at one point even “hitting” and “scratching” him when he questioned her about the device. Phypers says he found the phone a day later smashed in their recycling bin, but she continued to deny having anything to do with it.
