Woman who filmed 'Coldplay couple' on kiss-cam shares one regret about sharing it to world

The woman who accidentally filmed the viral ‘Coldplay couple’ has revealed whether she feels guilty for capturing the viral moment.

The viral video has been watched over 120,000,000 times, in which a man and woman were caught cuddling on a jumbotron during the concert.

Grace Springer, from New Jersey, was filming the segment of the Coldplay show, hoping to see herself on the big screen.

What she instead recorded, though, was the pair cuddling before rapidly trying to separate themselves on screen as she revealed in an appearance on ITV’s This Morning.

Whilst frontman Chris Martin called out that they ‘were either really shy or having an affair’, it turned out that those videoed were Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and his colleague, Kristin Cabot, Astronomer's Chief People Officer.

Byron has since tendered his resignation from the company following widespread backlash, with both of those in the video turning out to be married.

Springer, who filmed the moment, was asked about what led to her posting the footage of the moment in her appearance on This Morning today (21 July).

She said that whilst it was a hot topic of discussion at the concert, it wasn’t till she got home and reviewed the footage that she and her friends realised how bad it looked.

Whilst Dermot O’Leary clarifies that she did nothing wrong, he did ask Springer if she feels guilty due to the backlash from the incident.

She said in response: “I definitely feel guilty for Andy’s wife Megan, his family, and everyone else who has been hurt in the process.

“But… there was over 50,000 [at the concert] so if it wasn’t me who uploaded it I’m sure someone else would.”

She went on to say that she ‘absolutely’ hadn’t expected it to be seen by as many people as it has gone on to be viewed by.

She also revealed in the interview that she isn’t part of the TikTok creator fund and that the video is demonetised anyways, meaning that she has made no money whatsoever from the video.

In an exclusive interview with LADbible, Grace had previously shared what happened next after she stopped recording.

She said: “As soon as it cut off they disappeared, and then Chris tried to save the show kind of, he moved on to another couple and did something really sweet with that couple… But people were definitely still talking about it.

"[Chris Martin said] something along the lines of, 'I hope we didn't just do something really bad'."

She went on to say that at first she had been experiencing ‘a little bit of guilt’.

She added that it’s ‘heartbreaking’ to go through something like that but that you ‘need to be held accountable for your actions’.

She finally added: "Unfortunately, I think a lot of women including myself has been through situations like that. I had people in my life that knew and didn't tell me, so I would want to be told.

"I don't have much respect for cheaters, I think at the end of the day you have to do the right thing. It doesn't mean they can't be good people moving forward."

Astronomer announced that Byron had stepped down in a statement, saying in part: “As stated previously, 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. Andy Byron has tendered his resignation, and the Board of Directors has accepted.”
