EXCLUSIVE: Andy Byron’s ‘Son’ Unveils Identity After Ex-CEO’s Cheating Scandal

It’s been weeks since the now-former Astronomer CEO, Andy Byron, was caught in a cheating scandal with his coworker, Kristin Cabot.

The two were spotted cozying up together at a Coldplay concert when the stadium jumbotron zoomed in on them for a kiss cam moment, leading them to hide themselves in embarrassment for being caught once they saw themselves on the big screen.

At the time, the frontman of Coldplay, Chris Martin, joked, “Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy.”

Turned out Chris happened to be right about them having an affair. Since then, Byron and his apparent mistress have been under fire, encountering much criticism, mockery, and scrutiny online.

The former Astronomer CEO, who resigned shortly after his cheating scandal took over news headlines, was the topic of much conversation, especially after his proclaimed “son,” Logan Byron, launched a TikTok page, exposing his “father,” Byron, and their alleged family issues.

Byron is married to Megan Kerrigan, who deleted her last name from her Facebook before deleting all her social media accounts, and they share two sons.

While his real children are not identified for privacy reasons, a few people have claimed that Byron is their dad, one of the first being the TikToker known as Logan Byron.

Although Logan states in his TikTok bio that it’s “clearly a joke,” his videos on the cheating scandal have gone viral, and many people have taken notice of him, whether they believe his joke or not.

ACHDA Digital Media Generation had the opportunity to interview Logan, who revealed to our news publication that his real name was Lucas, about his rise to TikTok fame and his take on the cheating scandal, which he first heard about on Instagram. He admitted that “this is mostly an online personality.”

When asked about the reasoning behind pretending to be Andy’s son, Logan didn’t expect the amount of fame he received from going along with the joke.

“I thought it would be a funny joke, and I think a lot of people got the joke. Also, it was a great way to grow a TikTok following quickly and get brand deals,” Logan said. “So when I went viral, I kinda just thought, ‘Hey, let’s make the most out of it.’”

Andy has not directly contacted Logan following his claims online, but he has been allegedly using AI-generated accounts to target Logan’s account in the comments.

“I was also messaged by a popular user who said his lawyers [issued] a ‘cease and desist’ to other creators going viral for talking about the situation,” Logan explained.

With a rumor going around that Andy is considering suing Coldplay for the cheating scandal, Logan opened up whether or not he could face legal consequences for pretending to be his son, and making claims, such as Andy was threatening to send him to military school.

“I did think about this, and honestly, what could he sue me for? Defamation? It wouldn’t make sense since he cheated on his wife and family in public,” Logan said. “He dug that grave, so if a young person goes online pretending to be his son as a joke, there isn’t much he can do.”
