Kristin Cabot Files for Divorce Weeks After Viral Coldplay Kiss-Cam Clip

The Portsmouth filing comes after leadership changes at Astronomer that followed the stadium video.

Overview

  • Cabot submitted divorce papers on August 13 in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, according to reports citing court records.
  • The July 16 Gillette Stadium kiss-cam showed Cabot with then–Astronomer CEO Andy Byron, prompting a quip from Coldplay’s Chris Martin.
  • Astronomer opened a formal board investigation; Byron was suspended and resigned on July 19, and Cabot left the company the following week.
  • Company co‑founder Pete DeJoy became interim CEO as the data firm valued around $1.2–$1.3 billion navigated the fallout.
  • Public records and reporting say Cabot and her husband jointly own a Rye, New Hampshire home worth about $2.2 million that could factor into asset division, and neither principal has offered a detailed public explanation.
