Kristin Cabot, the HR chief at Astronomer, is legally married to Andrew Cabot, CEO of Privateer Rum, amidst a scandal triggered by a viral kiss cam video from a Coldplay concert. The couple, confirmed through property records to share a Rye, New Hampshire address, co-owns a coastal home valued at $2.2 million, purchased in February 2025.
Kristin’s involvement with Privateer Rum dates back to September 2020, when she served as an advisory board member, a position she is no longer listed in following the deletion of her LinkedIn profile. The official site of Privateer Rum currently does not acknowledge her in any leadership roles.
Further complicating matters is Kristin’s past marriage to Kenneth Thornby, from whom she separated in 2018, finalizing their divorce in 2022. The fallout from the kiss cam incident, which featured both Kristin and Andy Byron, the CEO of Astronomer, has led to public speculation and internal scrutiny, resulting in both executives being placed on administrative leave.
As the incident continues to generate buzz online, it raises significant questions about professional boundaries and Kristin Cabot’s connections in the business world.
