Coldplay Cheating Scandal HR Executive Married Into One Of Boston’s Oldest And Richest Families

Being publicly embarrassed was just the beginning for Kristin Cabot.
The twice-married woman, who was caught getting handsy with another married man at a Coldplay concert, walked into a massive PR crisis. And she dragged one of Boston’s oldest and wealthiest families into the scandal with her.
“If the cheated on CEO husband needs a shoulder… call me!” a netizen said as the internet continues to watch the controversy unfold.
Kristin was one among a crowd of 50,000 fans who attended the Coldplay concert at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, Massachusetts, on July 16.
She appeared to be enjoying herself when lead singer Chris Martin interacted with the crowd during the gig.
At one point, the “kiss cam” panned across the audience and focused on Kristin as she was canoodling former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron. They awkwardly scrambled around to hide their faces, but the damage had already been done by then.
“Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy. I’m not quite sure what to do,” the band’s frontman said.
Following the headline-making spectacle, Kristin has been on leave from her job as HR executive of Astronomer, a New York-based software company.
Reports revealed that she is currently married to Andrew Cabot, a sixth-generation heir of the Cabot family.
The couple bought a two-story home for $2.2 million in Rye, New Hampshire, just months back, in February.
Kristin was reportedly first married to Kenneth Thornby, and their divorce was finalized in 2022. It is unclear when she and Andrew got married, but it is believed to be the Cabot heir’s second marriage as well.
Andrew runs the Massachusetts-based spirits company Privateer Rum and serves as the CEO and COO.
