Former Astronomer executive Kristin Cabot was spotted outside her New Hampshire home for the first time since a viral kiss cam video linked her to then-CEO Andy Byron. The clip, filmed at a Coldplay concert, showed them appearing affectionate. Both were married to other people and later resigned. “Chris Martin’s awkward reaction” in the video helped it go viral, sparking a flood of online attention.
Cabot, photographed watering her plants without a wedding ring, drew renewed focus on her private life. Public records show she and husband Andrew Cabot bought the home earlier this year. They have no children together, but both have kids from previous relationships.
The video led internet users to uncover their identities and marriages. Reaction has been mixed—some criticized the behavior, while others called for empathy. The fallout affected both their careers and reputations.
Before the scandal, Cabot was known for her “people-first” leadership and held top HR roles at Neo4j and Astronomer. She’s remained silent since stepping down.
Though public interest is fading, the incident shows how quickly a private moment can reshape public perception in the digital age.
