(NBC) – The husband of the tech company employee seen embracing her boss on Coldplay’s audience “kiss cam” is speaking out for the first time since his wife went viral in July.
A spokeswoman for Massachusetts entrepreneur Andrew Cabot, 61, told People Magazine on Monday that he and his wife, Kristin Cabot, “were privately and amicably separated several weeks before the Coldplay concert.”
“Their decision to divorce was already underway prior to that evening,” the spokeswoman said in a statement. “Now that the divorce filing is public, Andrew hopes this provides respectful closure to speculation and allows his family the privacy they’ve always valued.”
“No further public comment will be made,” she added.
During Coldplay’s performance at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, on July 16, the band’s “kiss cam” starting displaying couples in the audience.
Kristin Cabot, Astronomer’s chief people officer, was captured in an embrace with her boss Andy Byron, then the data company’s CEO. When the camera landed on the pair, Cabot immediately covered her face and the man ducked out of the frame.
The moment prompted laughs and intrigue from the audience, and led Coldplay’s lead singer, Chris Martin, to poke fun at the awkward moment.
