Kristin Cabot has not been dragged through the mud as much as Andy Byron, but she is not without fault.

When the kiss cam panned to them while at the show, Kristin was caught on camera being held from behind by Andy Byron, who has since resigned from his post as Astronomer’s CEO.

There were claims that Cabot was previously married to Kenneth Thornby and divorced in 2022. It turns out that she might be currently married as well.

Kristin Cabot appears to have since remarried, according to new documents obtained by the New York Post. The outlet found property records that note that Cabot shares a home with Andrew Cabot.

That is just the tip of the iceberg.

The New York Post added that Cabot married into one of Boston’s oldest and wealthiest families. Andrew Cabot is a Privateer Rum owner. He reportedly touts his family lineage as the sixth-generation owner of the longstanding rum brand, founded by the “original” Andrew Cabot.

A 1972 New York Times profile of the Cabot family estimated the family’s fortune at $200 million. According to the report, that’s $15.4 billion in 2025.

The publication does not know when Kristin Cabot and Andrew got married, but their union is at least the second one for them both.

Cabot’s now-deleted LinkedIn account showed that she has served as an “advisory board member” at Privateer Rum since September 2020.

The Cabot family made its fortune in soot, known colloquially in industry circles as “carbon black. “This key ingredient in car tires dates back to New England for 10 generations. The family is so well known in Boston that it’s said locally that the “Cabots speak only to God.”

Kristin Cabot Placed On Leave

Astronomer HR Chief Kristin Cabot and ex-CEO Andy Byron were caught in a Coldplay kiss cam scandal.

Byron resigned from his position.

Cabot was placed on leave. However, many have called on her to do the same after users noticed she still appears on the company’s leadership page following a public scandal that also involved the now-former CEO, Andy Byron.

It remains to be seen what happens next.
