So, Kim and Barry Plath from Welcome to Plathville called it quits. After a solid two decades, no less. They spilled the beans to Us Weekly, making it official in June 2022. “Not an easy decision,” they admitted. But, apparently, it’s for the best. Through the rollercoaster of 24 years, they’ve seen it all. Now, they’re turning the page, focusing on co-parenting their brood.
Since 2019, these two have been letting us peek into their lives. All thanks to TLC’s Welcome to Plathville. It’s not just any life, though. We’re talking rural Georgia vibes with nine kids in tow. Ethan, Hosanna, Micah, Moriah, Lydia, Isaac, Amber, Cassia, and Mercy make up the crew. And their lifestyle? Let’s just say it’s had tongues wagging. No TV. No soda. Just pure, unadulterated Plath family antics.
Oh, and about them living apart. That bomb dropped in a June 2022 episode. Kim’s strategy? Bouncing between rental properties. “I pack a bag and I go,” she said. It wasn’t what she envisioned, for sure. Change was in the air, and Barry? Well, she felt he kinda stopped trying at some point.
