I felt, in the initial moments, I’m sure it was funny to people. I can appreciate that. I’ve certainly seen funny things online and forwarded them around and clicked on them. I just don’t think people really stop and think about, there’s real humans behind this.” Cabot added that her estranged husband was also at the concert that night. She thought about possibly bumping into him and wondered how he’d feel about seeing her with her then-boss Andy Byron. Cabot told The New York Times in an interview last year she had never had a physical relationship with Byron until that night (she said they did kiss once), although she admitted he had been her “crush” after they bonded at work. She insists her husband knew about their close relationship. You can watch the full interview on YouTube. ...read more read less
