The executive who gained notoriety after a Coldplay concert kiss cam exposed her affair with her married boss, has revealed her husband was also at the concert.

Kristin Cabot made the surprise revelation during an exclusive interview with The Oprah Podcast, which will air on YouTube tomorrow, according to People.

Cabot, 53, and Astronomer chief executive Andrew Byron, resigned from their roles within a month of the kiss in July last year.

In a preview of the interview posted to Instagram, Cabot explains to Oprah that she and her husband Andrew Cabot were already separated at the time of the concert.

“I was walking into the concert and my daughter [from a previous relationship] messaged me and said, ‘Oh it’s so great that you and Andrew are both at Coldplay’,” she said.

“In my mind I thought, is this going to be weird if he sees me with Andy [Byron]? Like … if I run into him."

Cabot said she thought it would be unlikely given more than 55,000 people were at Gillette Stadium.

She told Oprah she now thinks it “would have been better at the end of the day if I’d just run into him”.

According to People, Cabot insisted her husband would not have been bothered by seeing her with Byron.

“[My ex] knows how closely Andy and I worked together, he knows we socialised, like got lunches and got drinks. It was fine,” Cabot said.

“He knows the nature of my work ... I’ve shared desks with the CEOs I’ve worked with.”

She said it was “just a very close relationship and so it didn’t matter”.

Byron, who is married with two children, has not commented on the scandal, and has since been seen with his wife, according to US Weekly.

The Oprah Podcast teaser says tomorrow’s episode will be the only time Cabot will discuss the incident on camera.

Winfrey is heard in the clip asking Cabot for her response to being labelled “slut, homewrecker, gold digger and sidepiece... the usual tags for shaming women”.

Cabot is also due to present at a public relations conference next month to talk about her experience of being “publicly shamed”.

“Cabot experienced first-hand the extremity of public shaming that women have long experienced when in the negative spotlight of the media, one their male counterparts often seem to avoid,” a descriptor of her conference presentation read.

The event advised attendees that they would be equipped with the “tactics necessary to pivot at a moment’s notice for unexpected occurrences that are now the norm, not the exception”.
