The woman caught cheating with Astronomer CEO Andy Byron was herself cheating on another CEO—her husband.
Kristin Cabot, Astronomer’s Chief People Officer, went viral on Thursday after being caught canoodling with Byron on the kiss cam at a Coldplay concert just outside Boston.
As it turns out, Byron isn’t the only CEO in her life, with the New York Post reporting that Cabot, whose maiden name is Stanek, lives with, and is presumably married to, Andrew Cabot, the CEO of Privateer Rum, a Massachusetts-based rum company.
Having previously shared another home in the same town, the couple purchased a new $2.2 million home in New Hampshire together just five months ago.

The couple were enjoying the concert with their arms entwined, until the camera panned to them, at which point Byron attempted to hide while Cabot covered her face with her hands.
The pair were quickly identified, forcing Astronomer, a New York-based software company, to issue a statement. ”Astronomer is committed to the values and culture that have guided us since our founding. Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability,” the statement read.
“The Board of Directors has initiated a formal investigation into this matter and we will have additional details to share very shortly.” The couple have been placed on leave, according to Axios, and a resignation and exit package for Byron is being negotiated.
