Kristin Cabot’s Divorce Filing Confirmed as Husband Says They Separated Before Coldplay Clip

The case proceeds in New Hampshire, with both she and then-CEO Andy Byron no longer at Astronomer following the widely viewed July 16 concert clip.

Overview

  • Court records show Cabot filed for divorce on Aug. 13 in Portsmouth, N.H., and the case remains active.
  • A conference in the divorce case is scheduled for Nov. 26, according to the court paperwork.
  • A spokeswoman for Andrew Cabot tells People the couple were privately and amicably separated weeks before the concert and had already decided to divorce.
  • Cabot and Byron left Astronomer shortly after the video circulated, and company cofounder Pete DeJoy was named interim CEO in a board statement.
  • The Coldplay “kiss cam” moment on July 16 drew tens of millions of views, spawned online speculation and fake posts, and prompted tongue-in-cheek PR from Astronomer featuring Gwyneth Paltrow.
