A social media storm was triggered after Cabot was caught cuddling with now-former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron. She is married to Andrew, a sixth-generation heir to the Privateer Rum fortune.
The documents in possession of The US Sun revealed that the couple bought a $2.2 million home on the New Hampshire coast in March 2025. The Cabots took out a massive loan on the house with Morgan Stanley, and both of their names are on the paperwork for the mortgage.

How mortgage makes things difficult in case of divorce
If a couple is seeking a divorce, a mortgage could mess up things, as both parties will be responsible for payments, regardless of who lives in the house. The couple, if separated, may need to sell up or have one party refinance to take over the loan. According to research, a quitclaim deed can also transfer ownership, but it doesn't remove liability from the mortgage.

Andrew and Kristin Cabot's lavish house
The lavish four-bed, two-bath residence is being called a "classic New England gem" online, which is ready to be brought back to its former glory.
It's unclear if the couple has started spending on renovations or hired anyone to make plans for the property yet. The home, which sits on 1.42 acres just two miles from the beach, was sold 'as is' since it 'needs rehab' and features fruit trees, berry bushes, and scenic pastoral views. The property also includes high ceilings, a wraparound enclosed porch, a walk-up attic, and a two-car garage.
Andrew and Kristin Cabot's background and lineage
Andrew's family lineage goes back ten generations in New England and includes privateers, industrial titans, and merchant traders who played an instrumental role in shaping the American aristocracy, according to reports.
The Cabots are one of Boston's original "Brahmin" families. It is a blue-blooded elite so powerful that even the Kennedy clan was considered too new-money to join their ranks. The family made its fortune in "carbon black," soot used in car tyres, and held vast holdings in Cabot Corporation.
Their empire has included chemicals, paint, gas, and rum, with Kristin once serving as an "advisory board member" for Privateer. They have not been seen since the scandal broke when a TikTok clip went viral of Kristin's boss wrapping his arms around her at the concert during a romantic moment on the big screen.
This seems to be the second marriage for both. Kristin's previous divorce was finalized in 2022, according to the New York Post. Meanwhile , Byron, who has now resigned, and his wife, Megan, are also said to be in hiding, according to media reports.

AAFA urges long-term AGOA renewal to boost US-Africa trade

Beth Hughes, vice president of trade and customs policy at the American Apparel and Footwear Association (AAFA), has delivered testimony before the Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR), highlighting the importance of renewing the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) for calendar year 2026. Speaking at the annual review hearing (Docket Number USTR-2025-0012), Hughes stated that AGOA plays a pivotal role in driving US private-sector investment and employment across Africa and the United States. She shared testimonials from AAFA member companies, underscoring the impact of AGOA on business expansion and job creation. Hughes said that one member company recently inaugurated a new garment factory in Togo, employing over 250 local workers trained over the past eight months. The company plans to expand the workforce to 500, with finished goods shipped to a US-based warehouse that employs more than 100 Americans. Beth Hughes of AAFA has urged the USTR to renew AGOA for 2026, citing its critical role in boosting US investment and job creation in Africa and the US. She shared member success stories in Togo, Madagascar, Ghana, and Tanzania, and proposed enhancements like triennial reviews and improved customs systems. Hughes called AGOA a 'success story' and pushed for long-term renewal. She further noted that another US apparel company is preparing to construct a facility in Madagascar to relocate nearly 50 per cent of its production from China, Vietnam, and Indonesia. However, Hughes warned that this investment is entirely dependent on AGOA's renewal, as losing duty-free access would render the project unviable. In Ghana, a US company taking advantage of AGOA has become the country's largest private employer, with over 6,000 workers and plans to double that number by year-end. Much of the company's production has shifted from Asia to Ghana due to the cost competitiveness enabled by AGOA. Hughes also mentioned a long-standing AAFA member, founded in 1987, that has fully transitioned production from China to Madagascar and Tanzania since 2007. The company now employs over 10,000 workers—mostly women—and supplies 50 million garments annually to over 60,000 US small businesses, supporting around 3 million American jobs. She emphasised that AGOA's third-country fabric rule is vital, as it allows apparel manufacturers in lesser developed AGOA countries to source inputs from outside the continent while textile infrastructure in Africa is still being developed. At present, African suppliers provide only about 10 per cent of the cotton yarn and fabric used by local apparel manufacturers. To enhance AGOA's effectiveness and utilisation, Hughes said AAFA supports several targeted improvements. These include converting the annual eligibility review to a triennial cycle, allowing cumulation from African Union countries that have ratified the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), and replacing outdated textile visa requirements with modern customs cooperation. She also recommended adjusting apparel quotas and revising the graduation criteria for AGOA beneficiaries. Calling AGOA a 'success story,' Hughes urged Congress and the Administration to renew the programme before the September 30 deadline and for the longest possible duration to provide certainty and encourage long-term investment. 'The time to act is now,' she said. 'AGOA has helped build a strong foundation for economic partnership, industrial growth, and mutual prosperity between the US and Africa. Let's not allow that progress to stall.' Fibre2Fashion News Desk (SG)

Coca-Cola Q2 results: Net income jumps 58% to $3.8 billion; higher prices offset weaker global volumes

Coca-Cola reported a 58% rise in net income to $3.8 billion for the April-June quarter, even as global case volumes fell by 1%, with higher prices helping the beverage giant offset sluggish sales, particularly in Latin America. Revenue for the quarter rose 1% to $12.5 billion, while adjusted revenue stood at $12.6 billion—in line with Wall Street estimates, according to FactSet. Adjusted earnings per share came in at 87 cents, topping analysts' forecast of 83 cents. The company said global pricing increased by 6% during the second quarter, helping counter declines in overall volumes. In North America, volumes fell 1%, mirroring the global trend. Among product segments, Coca-Cola Zero Sugar emerged as a bright spot, with volumes rising 14%, even as total Coca-Cola volumes declined. The flagship brand still far outsells its zero-sugar variant, but demand for sugar-free options is rising rapidly. The company, however, did not confirm a claim made by President Donald Trump last week on social media that Coca-Cola would switch to real cane sugar in its US drinks instead of high-fructose corn syrup. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like This Could Be the Best Time to Trade Gold in 5 Years IC Markets Learn More Undo Coke only said that new offerings were in the pipeline. In other categories, juice, dairy and plant-based beverages saw volumes drop 4%, while sports drink volumes declined 3%, with gains in North America offset by losses in Latin America. Coca-Cola said it now expects full-year adjusted earnings growth of 8%. Earlier this year, the company had projected 8–10% growth, but lowered that to 7–9% in April. In 2024, Coca-Cola earned $2.88 per share. Coca-Cola shares edged slightly lower in early Tuesday trading, along with broader declines across US markets.
