Reports Say Coldplay 'Kiss Cam' HR Exec’s Husband Was at the Same Show With a Date as Source Denies Affair

A source close to Kristin Cabot says the viral hug reflected poor judgment, not a relationship.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets, citing a source, report that Andrew Cabot attended the Gillette Stadium concert with his own date, contradicting earlier claims he was in Japan.
  • Cabot had already separated from her husband and filed for divorce on August 13 in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, according to court filings and a spokesperson.
  • Both Kristin Cabot and CEO Andy Byron resigned from Astronomer after the July jumbotron clip, and the company said their conduct fell short of leadership standards.
  • A source quoted by People describes Cabot and Byron’s connection as a professional friendship and says the hug on camera was inappropriate but not evidence of an affair.
  • Coverage also details sustained harassment of Cabot after the video went viral, including reports of hundreds of death threats and public taunting.
