Husband dragged into Coldplay 'kiss cam' saga breaks his silence amid divorce from Kristin Cabot

The husband of Kristin Cabot, the HR executive involved in the 'kiss cam' Coldplay concert saga that made international headlines, has broken his silence.

Andrew Cabot has issued a statement to People and clarified things, after it was reported by The Daily Mail that Kristin had filed for divorce, per legal documents.

It comes after a clip of HR executive Kristin and CEO Andy Byron at a July Coldplay concert in Boston went viral on social media.

In the statement, shared by a spokeswoman of the Privateer Rum CEO, it revealed that he and Kristin actually split weeks before the concert.

The statement confirmed that they "were privately and amicably separated several weeks before the Coldplay concert".

"Their decision to divorce was already underway prior to that evening. 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," it added in part.

Following the viral clip, Kristin and Andy Byron have both since resigned from the US tech company, Astronomer.

Andy's wife Megan has also removed the name "Byron" from her surname on social media.

In the concert clip, when the pair flashed up on screen locked in a hug during the 'kiss cam,' they hurriedly parted.

"Either they're having an affair or they're just very shy," Chris Martin joked at the time.

Astronomer later confirmed that Byron had resigned following the incident, writing on X: "Andy Byron has tendered his resignation, and the Board of Directors has accepted."

A representative of the company confirmed to People that Cabot had also resigned.

She was the company's chief people officer.

Just weeks ago, Chris Martin's ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow appeared in a cheeky new clip for the company Astronomer - with viewers praising the clip on social media.
