The pair were seated on deck chairs in sweaters, while enjoying sodas and snacks and watching the sunset.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The next morning, paparazzi captured them on a leisurely walk together, both sporting their wedding bands. The two appeared content and happy while chatting.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The status of Byron and Cabot\u2019s current employment is unknown. Their online profiles have been removed from the internet entirely.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Meanwhile, the Byron home in Massachusetts appears to be vacant. Court records suggest the Byrons have not filed for divorce in Massachusetts or Maine.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Last week, a source close to Cabot insisted to People that she did not break up Byron\u2019s marriage.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cKristin and Andy had an excellent working relationship, a great friendship. There was no affair,\u201d the source said. \u201cIt was inappropriate to be hugging your boss at a concert, and she accepts full responsibility for it. But the scandal, the downfall, the loss of the job\u2014all of that is unfair.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The viral kiss cam video that sent the internet into a frenzy is continuing to make headlines.
