Kristin Cabot Files for Divorce Following Coldplay ‘Kiss Cam’ Scandal
Kristin Cabot, former HR executive of the tech company Astronomer, has officially filed for divorce from her husband Andrew Cabot. The filing was made on August 13, 2025, less than a month after Kristin was caught in an intimate embrace with her then-boss Andy Byron during a viral kiss-cam moment at a Coldplay concert in July.
The kiss-cam incident at the Gillette Stadium in Boston captured Kristin and Andy Byron sharing a closeness that sparked widespread media attention and speculation about an extramarital affair. Both Kristin and Andy, who were married to different spouses at the time, subsequently resigned from their positions at Astronomer
Andrew Cabot, CEO of the family-run Privateer Rum and part of a prominent Boston family, appeared unfazed publicly by the scandal. According to sources, he was away on a business trip in Japan during the incident and chose to focus on financial matters amid the fallout. This divorce marks the third for both Kristin and Andrew.
Family insiders described the separation as a long time coming, with reports suggesting the marriage had been strained for months prior to the scandal breaking. Andrew’s former wife Julia, who remains close to the situation, remarked that neither Andrew nor Kristin seemed like “husband or wife material.”
The couple shared a $2.2 million home in Rye, New Hampshire, purchased earlier in 2025. Kristin’s move to file for divorce formalizes the end of what was already a troubled marriage, following the public airing of private matters at one of summer’s most high-profile concerts.
As the scandal continues to ripple through social and corporate circles, Andy Byron’s own marital status remains uncertain, with no official divorce filed by his spouse, Megan. The Coldplay kiss-cam drama will long be remembered as a cautionary tale of private indiscretions becoming very public.
