Social media users quickly connected the dots, referencing Byron’s 2023 statement praising Cabot’s leadership as now possibly loaded with double meaning. What once seemed like standard corporate admiration is being reinterpreted under a more scandalous lens.Complicating the optics, Byron is a married man, while Cabot finalized her divorce in 2022. Shortly after the video went viral, Byron’s wife, Megan, deleted her social media profiles, and Byron took down his LinkedIn page. Viewers online flooded Megan’s accounts with sympathy and speculation, deepening the public’s emotional investment in the unfolding situation. Meanwhile, Cabot’s profiles remain active, but she has yet to comment on the incident.The attention has also reignited criticism of Byron’s past leadership at Cybereason, where multiple former employees accused him of toxic management and retaliatory behavior. In a 2018 exposé, Byron was described as confrontational, with some alleging he threatened employees who disagreed with him. He denied the accusations, stating his tough decisions were simply unpopular with some staff. Still, the report painted a picture of a tense and divisive work environment under his leadership.As of now, neither Byron nor Cabot has addressed the rumors publicly, and Megan Byron has stayed silent. The lack of response has only fueled more online discussion and amateur sleuthing. What began as a concert mishap has become a full-blown PR crisis—one that blurs the lines between personal failure and professional fallout. For now, the public is watching and waiting to see what happens next.
