Astronomer CEO, HR Head Resign After Coldplay Kiss Cam Scandal Amid Amicable Separation

Andrew Cabot, CEO of Privateer Rum, and his wife Kristin Cabot, former Head of HR at tech company Astronomer, were caught in a viral kiss cam moment with Kristin and then-Astronomer CEO Andy Byron at a Coldplay concert, leading to widespread speculation about an affair. However, Andrew's spokesperson clarified that Andrew and Kristin had been privately and amicably separated several weeks before the concert and were already in the process of divorcing. Both Andrew and Kristin have since stepped down from their respective positions following the scandal, with Kristin filing for divorce in August. Despite the public attention and media coverage, Andrew's spokesperson emphasized a desire for privacy and stated that no further comments would be made. The incident sparked a broader conversation about privacy in the digital age and public scrutiny of personal matters. Neither Kristin Cabot nor Andy Byron have publicly addressed the nature of their relationship.
