A source shared this information during an interview with The Times, revealing that claims that Andrew was in Japan at the time of the concert were false and that he was, in fact, at the same event with his current girlfriend.
Andrew had previously shared a statement via a spokesperson to PEOPLE about the affair, saying he and his wife "were privately and amicably separated several weeks before the Coldplay concert."

The source also claims that Cabot wasn't trying to hide from the camera when she decided to duck and doesn't know why she reacted that way.
She knew it was inappropriate to behave that way with her boss as the head of HR. It was not that she was caught cheating, it was not some affair. She fully acknowledges [the situation] was inappropriate, but that was the only inappropriate thing she did.
Whether you choose to believe that part of the story is up to you.
All we know is, this viral moment will live on in memes, work jokes and our minds for many more years to come.
