A second executive has resigned from tech company Astronomer following a Coldplay concert video that went viral and sparked online speculation and scrutiny.
The company confirmed Thursday that Kristin Cabot, Astronomer's chief people officer, had submitted her resignation.
"Kristin Cabot is no longer with Astronomer. She has resigned," Astronomer said in a statement shared with ABC News.
Cabot and former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron were identified by online commenters as the two people allegedly caught on video in a "kiss cam" moment on the jumbotron at a July 16 Coldplay concert in Boston.
In the video, which quickly went viral on social media, a man and a woman are seen embracing before quickly ducking out of frame when they appear to realize they are on the jumbotron.
Coldplay's lead singer Chris Martin can also be heard in the video providing a play-by-play to the audience of the pair's reactions to being spotlighted on the kiss cam.
"Oh, look at these two. All right, come on, you're OK. Uh oh, what?" Martin can be heard saying as the two hide their faces. "Either they're having an affair, or they're just very shy. I'm not quite sure."

Neither Byron nor Cabot have commented publicly on the matter.
Astronomer announced on July 19 that Byron had resigned from the company in the wake of the viral moment.
