Lionel Messi and Wife Steal the Spotlight at Coldplay Concert with Classy Kiss Cam Moment
Inter Miami striker Lionel Messi and his wife, Antonela Roccuzzo, received a warm welcome at Coldplay’s Music of the Spheres concert in Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium.
The Kiss Cam quickly found them in the crowd, and for a moment, Lionel Messi and his wife played along. In the video, the couple is seen standing next to each other in what looks like a private suite or exclusive area.
The Argentinian star put his arm around Antonela's waist, smiled broadly, and waved to the concertgoers. However, the kiss did not happen, and the crowd did not seem bothered by that. Chants of "Messi! Messi! Messi!" erupted.

Lionel Messi Handled Kiss Cam Moment With Maturity
While Lionel Messi handled the Kiss Cam with grace, the same could not be said for Andy Byron, 50, the former CEO of tech company Astronomer.
At another Coldplay concert, this time in Massachusetts, he was caught on camera embracing Kristin Cabot, 52, his company's HR manager.

It was not his smile that caught the attention, but his shocked expression. He ducked down, and Kristin Cabot, who was not his wife but his mistress, covered his face.
Chris Martin reacted quickly: "Either they're having an affair, or they're very shy."
The video went viral, and Andy Byron was left by his wife and resigned as CEO. Kristin Cabot, the HR manager, also lost her job a few days later.
Lionel Messi and his wife, Antonela Roccuzzo, have known each other since childhood. They married in 2017 and have three sons, Thiago, Mateo, and Ciro, all football enthusiasts.
Earlier this year, Thiago, 12, scored 11 goals in an Inter Miami U13 match, a 12-0 victory against Atlanta U13.
