Source Says Astronomer Execs on Coldplay 'Kiss Cam' Were Not Having an Affair

A confidant of Kristin Cabot says both were already separated, with her divorce petition filed on Aug. 13.

Overview

  • People reports a source close to Cabot describes the embrace as an inappropriate moment between friends and not an affair.
  • The source says the outing was with a group of friends rather than a company event or box at Gillette Stadium.
  • Astronomer placed Andy Byron and Kristin Cabot on leave after opening a board probe; Byron resigned first, followed by Cabot days later, and the company cited unmet conduct standards.
  • Cabot and her husband were living apart before the concert, he attended the same show on a date, and she filed for divorce in mid-August, according to the reports.
  • The source says Cabot received a wave of harassment, including about 900 death threats in the first three days, and has focused on her family since leaving the job.
