Kristin Cabot, a former Astronomer executive widely known now for her involvement in a viral Kiss Cam controversy at a Coldplay concert, has filed for divorce from her husband, Andrew Cabot.
The divorce proceedings between the estranged couple have attracted considerable media attention, prompting Andrew to request the court to seal all related documents, aiming to shield their privacy amid the chaos stemming from the scandal.
The divorce petition was filed on August 13 in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, less than a month after Kristin was caught on a Kiss Cam during a July Coldplay concert, embracing Andy Byron, then CEO of Astronomer and Kristin’s boss. Video footage of their interaction went viral, sparking controversy as both were married to others at the time.
This incident led to their resignations from the company, and subsequently, Kristin’s choice to end her marriage. As one social media user posted, “This public spectacle must be so hard — hope privacy is respected now.”

Husband Andrew Cabot’s Plea to Seal Divorce Proceedings
In an effort to minimize the fallout, Andrew Cabot filed a motion agreeing to his wife’s request to seal the divorce petition and all court proceedings. He expressed that sealing the documents was vital “to provide their family and the children with as much protection and privacy as allowed by NH Law.”
This unified stance by both parties indicates a desire to keep the legal process private in the midst of public scrutiny. Andrew also reportedly expressed willingness to settle matters out of court through mediation, signaling a more amicable approach despite the turbulent backdrop.
Public Reaction and Social Commentary
The couple’s plight has stirred mixed reactions online. Julia Byron, Andrew Cabot’s previous wife, remarked in an interview about Andrew’s focus on financial aspects post-separation, saying, “The only thing he cares about is money… He’s not a nice person.” She added that this would be Andrew’s third divorce and cast doubt on both Kristin and Andrew’s suitability as lifelong partners.
Another common theme on social media highlights the idea of karma, with one commenter noting, “What you give, you get,” reflecting public judgment on the Kiss Cam drama.
The Kiss Cam Moment That Changed Everything
On July 16, during the Coldplay concert, the stadium’s Kiss Cam zoomed in on Kristin and Andy Byron as they shared an intimate embrace. Their immediate and awkward reaction upon realizing they were being filmed covering their faces and stepping away only escalated public curiosity and speculation.
Coldplay’s vocalist Chris Martin even joked, “They’re either having an affair or they’re just very shy,” adding fuel to the media fire. This caught moment became the catalyst for untangling relationships and careers.
