Astronomer HR exec Kristin Cabot seen for first time without her wedding ring as she resigns over Coldplay kiss cam scandal
Astronomer HR chief Kristin Cabot has been seen for the first time since the Coldplay kiss cam scandal that led to her resignation on Thursday.
The software company confirmed the married 52-year-old stepped down from her role, just over a week after she was caught canoodling with Astronomer CEO Andy Byron at a July 16 Coldplay concert in Boston – in a moment that quickly went viral.
‘Kristin Cabot is no longer with Astronomer – she’s resigned,’ a rep told TMZ.
But the fallen HR head appeared more focused on the health of her plants than her marriage when she was spotted for the first time back at her $2.2million home on Wednesday.
Exclusive Daily Mail photos show the now ex-Head of People alone and looking glum as she watered her flowers and shrubs on the lawn of her two-story, four-bedroom property in Rye, New Hampshire.
She had been placed on leave pending investigation amid the firestorm sparked by a kiss-cam video that showed her and Byron, who is also married, scrambling to hide their intimate moment at Boston’s Gillette Stadium.
Byron, meanwhile, stepped down from his role earlier this week.
Kristin had not been seen publicly since the viral incident until now, with new ‘No Trespassing’ signs appearing on the driveway of the home.
She was pictured without her wedding ring, which she had been previously seen wearing in social media photos, but was notably absent during her now infamous concert appearance.
The status of her marriage remains unknown, however, with her husband, Privateer Rum CEO Andrew Cabot, 60, an heir to the $15.4billion Cabot family fortune, nowhere to be seen at their home.

The billionaire businessman was reportedly on a work trip in Asia when the scandal erupted and returned on Saturday to find his family embroiled in the controversy, sources told the New York Post.
Kristin appeared to be hosting a small get together at the property, with half a dozen guests seen playing soccer and waving golf clubs in the back garden.
Dressed in a pink matching athleticwear set under a light jacket, and donning the same silver necklace as in the viral video, the high-flying executive put her hair up in a bun and cut a somber figure as she hosed her plants with dogs running underfoot.
She had a brief exchange with a man on the driveway, who was seen getting out of a car with Kristin’s son from her previous marriage, but it was unclear if her husband was the one driving it – or if he has forgiven his wife.
The couple purchased the $2.2million home on New Hampshire’s coast in February this year.
But the wealthy couple, referred to as husband and wife in state property records, did not outright pay for the ‘fixer-upper’, taking out a $1.6million mortgage with Morgan Stanley.
The Cabots had planned to renovate the four-bed, two-bath classic New England residence, which is situated on 1.42 acres of land.
The property was sold ‘as is’ and, according to the newspaper, ‘needs rehab’. It is unclear if the couple have hired contractors yet or even started renovations, but gardeners were seen at the property on Wednesday.

As the home is currently under lien, they may have to sell the property if they are planning to move forward with a divorce or formal separation.
Neither has filed for divorce in New Hampshire or Massachusetts according to public documents searched by the Daily Mail.
Both parties are responsible for mortgage payments regardless of who is physically residing in the home – which features high ceilings, a wrap-around porch, walk-up attic and two-car garage.
One party could buy the other out or refinance the loan to take on full responsibility.
It is unclear exactly when the pair tied the knot, but the documents confirm that Kristin, whose maiden name is Stanek, was married at the time of selling a $1.8million property in Watertown, Massachusetts, earlier this year.
Public documents show that Andrew has been married at least twice before, in 1993 and 2014.
He shares two children with his first wife Maud, who posted a picture of her ex-husband with Kristin looking loved up at his daughters 25th birthday party on social media in April of last year.
Kristin even posed with his son Henry, 30, in the snaps, and was seen wearing a wedding ring at the event – which was missing during her cozy Coldplay outing with Byron.
