The mishap made headlines around the world<\/a> in July when a couple, standing in an embrace, popped up on the jumbotron at Coldplay’s Boston concert and quickly parted ways, prompting a cheeky quip from frontman Chris Martin.<\/p>\n W\ufeffatch the video above for Richard Wilkins’ 2025 review.<\/p>\n “Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy,” he said as former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and HR executive Kristin Cabot rushed out of frame.<\/p>\n The moment went viral around the world and speculation about the nature of their relationship flew.<\/p>\n While Byron and Cabot both resigned from their roles amid the controversy, in September, a source shot down allegations of an ”affair” between the colleagues to People. \ufeff<\/a><\/p>\n READ MORE: ‘Horrific’: Rob Reiner’s kids share heartbreaking statement<\/a><\/p>\n READ MORE: Buck Rogers in the 25th Century star dies at age 82<\/a><\/p>\n READ MORE: Ellidy Pullin on finding love after Chumpy’s death<\/a><\/p>\n “Kristin and Andy [Byron] had an excellent working relationship, a great friendship. There was no affair,” the source told the outlet at the time.<\/p>\n “It was inappropriate to be hugging your boss at a concert, and she accepts full responsibility for it.<\/p>\n “But the scandal, the downfall, the loss of the job \u2013 all of that is unfair.<\/p>\n “It is important to note how inappropriately mislabeled Kristin has been \u2013 as a homewrecker.”<\/p>\n Three months ago, Cabot’s husband broke his silence<\/a>.\ufeff<\/p>\n Andrew Cabot issued a statement to People<\/a> and clarified things, after The Daily Mail<\/a> reported his wife had filed for divorce<\/a>, per legal documents.<\/p>\n The statement, shared by a spokeswoman of the Privateer Rum CEO, revealed the Cabots had split “privately and amicably” weeks before the kiss cam mishap.<\/p>\n “Their decision to divorce was already underway prior to that evening,” it said.<\/p>\n “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.”<\/p>\n In a final twist, Cabot broke her silence on December 18, telling the New York Times it was a “bad decision” to cozy up to Byron at a gig.\ufeff<\/p>\n \ufeff”I made a bad decision and had a couple of High Noons and danced and acted inappropriately with my boss,” Cabot she added in a separate interview with The New York Post.<\/p>\n “And it’s not nothing. I took accountability and I gave up my career for that. That’s the price I chose to pay.”<\/p>\n![\"Coldplay](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/https:\/\/prod.static9.net.au\/fs\/729bf578-aba7-4558-9c83-26d69a9fa8b4.jpeg\")
