Woman who filmed viral Coldplay kiss cam video explains why she shared video as new twist revealed

The woman who posted the viral video of Astronomer’s CEO and HR leader at a Coldplay gig has explained why she decided to share it to social media as news breaks that Kristin Cabot has made a major change in her life.

Grace Springer, from New Jersey, was at the Boston concert with friends when she caught a moment like no other on her camera.

What she didn't know when she posted it to her TikTok, @instaagraace, was that this one clip was going to blow up fast, and cause an impact.

Grace explained exactly why she shared the footage, telling LADbible that it was the 'talk of the concert'.

She began by saying she initially wasn’t going to publish it, telling us: "I had no clue who the couple was, I thought it was an interesting reaction to the kiss cam and my friends were actually the ones who pushed me to post it after the concert. I never would have expected this."

Grace went on to say that those around her were sure something wasn't right.

She said: "I thought it was more innocent, but the group I was with said 'no something weird is going on', because it was kind of the talk of the concert.

"Everybody was talking about it. I was like, I don't know, I think they were just shy.”

However, after watching the footage again, she realised it seemed ‘suspicious’.

So, she posted it.

She probably wouldn't have shared the video, she said, if they had just 'acted normal' when the kiss cam found them.

"If they had given a normal reaction, I wouldn't have posted it," she said.

But she went on to say she felt a little guilt when she first posted the clip.

That didn’t last long as she realised that there were spouses involved that would want to know the truth.

"At first, I was experiencing a little bit of guilt," said Grace.

"It's heartbreaking to go through something like that, but at the end of the day you need to be held accountable for your actions.

"I really just feel for the partners. I'm hoping that it will give them the opportunity not to waste any more time with a partner that doesn't give them the respect they deserve.

"Unfortunately, I think a lot of women including myself has been through situations like that. I had people in my life that knew and didn't tell me, so I would want to be told.

"I don't have much respect for cheaters, I think at the end of the day you have to do the right thing.

"It doesn't mean they can't be good people moving forward."

Even though it’s been two months since the event, it seems a twist has occurred in the story as it was reported that Cabot has filed for divorce from her husband, Privateer Rum CEO Andrew Cabot, who has since spoken out about the controversy.

According to his spokesperson the pair 'were privately and amicably separated several weeks before the Coldplay concert'.

They told PEOPLE: "Their decision to divorce was already underway prior to that evening. 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."

NBC News reported on 7 September that Cabot had filed for divorce on 13 August.

In light of the news, Andrew Cabot’s ex-wife gave her opinion on the situation.

Julia Cabot married the CEO in 2014, before they were divorced in 2018.

She claimed she wasn't surprised that the two were not together, telling The Daily Mail: “I got loads of texts from people who heard what happened and 99% of them said the same word: karma.”
