Andrew Cabot , husband of former Astronomer HR executive Kristin Cabot , said the couple had already separated before she was caught on kiss cam with ex-Astronomer CEO Andy Byron at a Coldplay concert in July.
Andrew, who is CEO of Privateer Rum, issued a statement on Monday through a spokesperson saying the two were “privately and amicably separated” weeks before the incident, reported People. Kristin formally filed for divorce on August 13 in Portsmouth, New Hampshire.
“Their decision to divorce was already underway prior to that evening,” the spokesperson said. “Now that the divorce filing is public, Andrew hopes this provides respectful closure to speculation and allows his family the privacy they’ve always valued.”
The scandal drew widespread attention after Kristin, 52, and Byron, 50, were caught on the Jumbotron in an embrace. Their embarrassed reactions went viral, with Coldplay frontman Chris Martin joking, “Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy.” Both resigned from their positions at Astronomer soon after.
Byron was married to Megan Kerrigan Byron, while Kristin was still publicly seen with Andrew earlier this year.
