Astronomer CEO Andy Byron’s viral canoodling is crashing harder than a bad launch — he and HR head Kristin Cabot have reportedly been suspended!

Yup, that’s right — after their alleged affair got exposed with a very cozy concert hug at Coldplay this week, the duo’s now benched at home while a formal investigation into their relationship kicks off, according to Axios.

Of course, it goes without saying — this is extra scandalous since Kristin’s the HEAD OF HR … you know, the one who’s supposed to know all the dos and don’ts of workplace romances.

And let’s be real, this ain’t your average workplace fling — Andy’s still married to Megan Kerrigan Byron … though she’s since scrubbed his last name from her socials.

But it sure explains why the duo ducked out of frame when the Jumbotron kiss-cam zoomed in — frontman Chris Martin even joked they might be having an affair!

So now the real countdown begins — will their fling survive the fallout, will they ever clock back in, or will this office romance stay lost in the corporate void? Stay tuned…
