Even if he wasn't, She's the head of HR and banging her boss. She's not cooked because the public hates her, she's cooked because she took a giant steaming dump on the core requirement of her career which is to be a credible HR person. Keeping that shit on the DL while at a friking company event is like a basic proof of competency.
People who want an actual HR person don't want to have that liability or have to explain her presence to their spouse. People who want to bang an employee don't want to have to explain she exists to anyone.
Let’s face it, HR is just another piece of the administration. The HR director is no more noble than any other director wanting to advance their career.
My husband works in HR and the times he had to tell a manager "No, we can't do that. No, we really can't do that. Because that's tax evasion. That's illegal." is absolutely mind-boggling.
I assume she claims in the article that he told her he was going to separate from his wife...but they were messing around for years, it's all bullshit and nobody cares either way, they're both idiots
I'm going to guess she wasn't very good at sneaking things past her parents when she was a kid. You either learn to play it cool or you freak out and tell on yourself like that.
Maybe she responded that way because the kiss cam wasn't as flattering at the styled, photoshopped, AI enhanced depiction of her that was selected to accompany this article depicts her as?
Chick was married to a millionaire who owned his own wine company and his family had legit generational wealth on top of that. Threw it all away for a frat bro that never grew up.
Understatement. The Cabot family are part of the Boston Brahmin families. There’s a popular old rhyme about them: “Here’s to the city of Boston, the land of bean and cod. Where the Lowell’s only speak with Cabot’s, And the Cabot’s only speak to God.”
Type of money where you could arrange for this type of thing to happen at a concert you knew your ex would be at and could be huge ammo against them. The more you know.
EDIT: felt compelled to add this while people are seeing my comment: her ex husband was also AT the concert that night. Mr. Cabot, that is. I’m sure he truly enjoyed the show.
It was crazy weird how it was just on everyone’s feeds by morning. My mom knew about it that day. Customer service reps lmfao. Someone blasted it everywhere within hours
That old dude who cheated on his wife was stupid because his ex wife was attractive and younger than the one he was with. It’s like he wanted to date an aunt or grandmother.
You know you're supposed to marry people because you love them right, not because they have a wine company. That attitude is like marginally less bad than the cheating...
We made a B list celebrity out of someone that said "spit on that thang". They talked about it on every late night and news program across the country for a week straight.
Dude, it's not just "American" celebrity. I'm old enough to remember the UK latching on to Jade Goody because she was a racist idiot on a Reality show, then collectively pretend they always liked her when she got cancer and that they felt bad, and that bullshit was 15 years ago.
I'm calling bullshit because she's not milking it. This is an old post. I remember seeing this a few weeks after it happened and we were all over it and didn't care. Bots gonna bot.
Yup. Can't believe I had to scroll down to find this comment.
But yes. Botting has gotten really, REALLY bad on reddit lately. I had to do so much filtering and now this sub unfortunately will have to be changed too. God this sucks lol.
What's crazy is that she is HR. I know plenty of people who have been fired for behavior like this, because HR simply says it's bad for business. It casts doubt on judgement, integrity, decision making, etc. Things that matter a lot when you're in a high enough position. I don't personally judge her for making mistakes or doing something fucked up, because we are all human, after all. But she absolutely should have known better.
And, personally, I have seen way too many people have their lives ruined because of one bad mistake. So fuck it, no sympathy.
However. As CHIEF OF HR, “I didn’t know he was married. He lied to me” Erm? So you didn’t do your fucking job then?
This then is the real unforgivable shit right? Like who is gonna hire a fucking HR that doesn’t even know whether or not the ceo is married. Let alone as the head of the department.
She ought to be raked over the coals for this newest change in the story. Hope she remains unemployed
She was married too, makes this claim a nothing burger. It was ok because you didn’t know he was married but your marriage didn’t mean anything? Wtf with these lunatics.
Im HR. You can see an employees marital status. She chose to believe that it didnt matter bc they were “on the rocks” or whatever. This is why she shouldn’t have crossed the boundary at all in this professional setting, but also why you stay away from “married on paper” people bc they can say anything and you will still be a homewrecker bc you are dating a married person.
Because she's an HR leader who will never get any meaningful job as in any high paying company as the head of HR again because she very publicly broke a taboo that shows she is untrustworthy at her job. So she's hoping she can use the media as a way a way to gain sympathy and launch some other career.
However, the issue as everyone stated is that she is miscalculating. She isn't some important figure that people care about. She was the butt of an ironic joke. It's over. It's not topical outside of meme potential anymore and there's no meaningful slant to this that people will latch onto so she can rewrite her narrative.
The internet is full of fucking weirdos. You might have forgotten about it but there have probably been hundreds or thousands of people still obsessing about it.
That article and this thread shows the story still attracts interest.
Because she doesn't think of herself as a bad person, so feels compelled to keep lying, changing the narrative, and trying to justify her actions to everyone rather than just accept fault and move on.
I have a friend whose cheating ex-husband keeps doing the same thing. Even though he was caught cheating with 100% proof (not to get into details) he still keeps trying to gaslight her, spin it as her being crazy to friends (who all know he cheated), and making excuses.
He still has never once vocalized or admitted that he did in fact cheat, as his conscience seems to refuse to accept he is a bad person who chose to (repeatedly) do bad things.
I feel like the day he finally admits it to himself it's gonna break him, which is needed it he ever wants to learn how to stop being a selfish, narcissistic, gaslighting prick.
Because she doesn't think of herself as a bad person, so feels compelled to keep lying, changing the narrative, and trying to justify her actions to everyone rather than just accept fault and move on.
Shit she even has a banger answer to those dumb HR questions she's probably asked people about screwing up or overcoming adversity in the workplace.
Or maybe within her circle of friends, family, and colleagues she’s feeling a ton of heat and judgement and that is her incentive to try and explain herself.
I guess if your career is ruined - while this is hardly the worst thing anyone has ever done, it's specifically a very good sign that she can't be trusted in an HR role, which means she can't get a job in her established line of work - you might as well try some other way of milking the situation.
My guess is she is having outsized backlash compared to him. But, girl, how old are you? Of course you knew that. You work in HR, you ARE that! We ALL know it. That's why this sort of thing is far, far, far riskier for women. It doesn't have to be fair to be true. But of all people, you should have known the most.
I mean, the only reason we even cared was because they tried to hide. If they had just acted like they were a normal couple, no one would have noticed and it never would have gone viral.
Sister, it doesn't matter if he was married or were married. No one gives a fuck. You were the HR head or something. You wouldn't hesitate to report some workers having illicit workplace affairs. You were fired because you were schmoozing with the fucking CEO. That's insanely unprofessional.
The (married) CEO of our big company was f’ing a (married) director in our company and they were found out. The CEO was fired. The director did not get fired and ended up climbing a bit higher on the management ladder. Eventually those two divorced their spouses and married each other. BTW, the company they both worked for was Catholic based, if that makes any difference.
This chick has white girls’ disease in the worst way. She wants to be the victim so bad, she can’t comprehend that if she just shuts the hell up for five minutes, everyone will forget about this and move on.
Simply by not caring is one thing. But getting mad about it means you care a little. What should happen when you truly don't care, is you don't even post about this shit.
Sure you don't care, but you put this asshole back in everyone's brains, so now we have to care a little too.
Start ignoring idiots. This is what they want. Most negative press is good press. I wouldn't be surprised if someone on her PR team, or whatever is advising her, is behind the post.
lol so if she didnt know he was married, why did she act so guilty and embarrassed to be on the kiss cam?? Why doesnt this lady stfu and fade back into obscurity? Does she think keeping this shit going will help her some how?
she’d fucking have faded into obscurity by now if she’d quit giving interviews about this incident.
And her whining about everyone picking on her is just fucking stupid. Fuck married men all you want - maybe don’t go to a concert and canoodle with one.
Also they were at a public sport event why would they imagine no one would see or recognize them😊Even if she was single or he was probably shouldn't date your boss common sense
