Following a viral incident at a Coldplay concert, Kristin Cabot, former HR chief at Astronomer, has filed for divorce from her husband, Andrew Cabot. The incident involved a ‘kiss cam’ moment with her boss, Andy Byrne, at Gillette Stadium, Massachusetts, which caused significant media attention.
During the concert, the camera focused on Cabot and Byrne, despite their existing marriages. Coldplay’s Chris Martin reacted humorously, leading to immediate online sharing and discussion. Byrne, who had been CEO of Astronomer since July 2023, resigned soon after. The company launched an internal investigation and placed both Cabot and Byrne on leave.
The divorce filing, which occurred on August 13 in Portsmouth Court, New Hampshire, adds to the complexities surrounding the event. This action presents a personal crisis for Andrew Cabot, the CEO of Privateer Rum. The online community quickly identified Byrne and Cabot, highlighting the public scrutiny. No public statements have been issued by either Cabot or Byrne regarding the incident. The company’s internal probe continues, leaving questions about the future.
