Obviously (OBVIOUSLY) cheating is wrong (if that is what they did), but it feels really unsavoury how it’s all played out so publicly, for all the families involved.
He’s also resigned now too - which feels extreme as well. *edit* resigning makes sense.

I don’t disagree with that. She should be held accountable and would be if it was my organisation.
In a sense, what happens between individuals is their business - and of course their families. But the world is what it is and you cannot de-invent social media, media intrusion/interest. If you hold a senior, newsworthy position, like a CEO, why would risk that when there are plenty of private places you fumble away to your hearts content?
It’s the stupidity of them setting themselves up in that way I find surprising.
Was googling, as my some was in his swimming lesson, and she has apparently been put on leave. So looks like they are acting correctly.
I agree, they been caught being silly and are now paying a heavy price.
Had they acted normal they’d have probably got away with it.
it wouldnt have become a global internet viral meme for sure, but the chances of them not being recognised by someone who at least knew them or recognised them at the same concert, would have been slim imo.
This CEO scandal on 10:12 - Jul 20 by lowhouseblue
you're right when "flaunting your infidelity" is witnessed by someone present at the concert - either directly or on the screen there. doubtless someone there amongst the 10,000 would inevitably have recognised them. but having it plastered all over social media in a global spasm of voyeurism is a different privacy issue entirely. it's quite possible to have a concept of privacy that says that third parties shouldn't publish intimate details of your life - even when others have been present to witness them directly. perhaps they would have been sacked without the social media coverage - someone there could have reported them - but the global frenzy amongst people with no possible connection is unpleasant.
It's the world we live in now. Laws allo filming and publication as long as its in the public domain. Once these things get published on social media, they then spread like wildfire. It's both a good thing and a bad thing. It allows us to see events filmed first hand but also can very quickly and completely destroy someone's reputation. These things also die down as quickly as they erupt. In 6 months, a years time, nobody will even remember their names.

CEO having an affair with someone below him on the org chart? That's an immediate no no. Astonishingly stupid.
As someone else raised, as she occupies the most senior HR role this is very damaging for her credibility. You'd imagine her role is totally untenable.
Imagine if he and her had signed off a massive project two weeks ago. Everything they've ever worked on is now in question.
He’s come across as a complete asshole after, and they’ve both behaved terribly before it seems. I feel for their spouses and kids who have had their lives tipped out for public scrutiny. They’ll not escape this for years and will be reminded of it by people for a long time to come.
Their reaction and his statement have done way more damage too. After that neither should have a decent career. They’re completely toxic to any company.
His statement was funny. Even having the gall to whine about the jumbotron camera picking him up without his consent. I hope his wife gleefully takes half of everything he owns…
I'm not locked in here with you...you're locked in here with me.
I've read all the comments on this thread but as someone who isn't on social media (other than this) I still have no idea what it is all about. Other than some bloke and a woman are having an affair, no idea who they are.
Why is this an issue for anyone other than their significant others.

Same here as far as social media goes, all I have seen is some footage of two people having a cuddle, I doubt that constitutes an affair unless there is some other reportage about them. The way people are going on about this you would think they were sixtynining.

Exactly it's mad. I just don't get why people are bothered, I'm assuming they're both adults and consenting.
Nobody is bothered. Nobody is angry (his missus apart). Plenty of people are amused. It is funny.
Clearly people are bothered, it's gone viral, I just don't get why? If the camera had panned to him fingering a 14 year old it's an issue. But cuddling a coworker, who isn't his wife, is only an issue for them and their significant others.
