“Welcome to Plathville” Mom Kim Plath is likely thrilled that her new boyfriend, Ken Palmer, is getting along so well with her children. It even looks like he may allegedly be trying to steal Barry Plath‘s kids from him.
Welcome to Plathville: Ken Palmer Versus Barry Plath
Kim Plath of TLC’s “Welcome to Plathville” reality series recently told her children she was dating again. She says she told her youngest son, Isaac Plath, the news first because it would affect him the most. As most “WTP” viewers know, Kim is seriously involved with a man named Ken Palmer. He was her son Isaac’s flight instructor, not to mention a close friend of her entire family.
Her split from her kids’ father and former husband, Barry, was difficult for her family. However, Kim says she is thrilled with her new life and man. She says that Ken and Barry are total opposites. Ken is everything, and doing everything for that Barry never was or did. It also seems that the “Welcome to Plathville” star has no problem with this. Nor does she mind letting everyone know when it comes to Ken Palmer and Barry Plath, Ken, hands down, is the winner in her book.
Barry Furious With Ex-Kim?
“Welcome to Plathville” dad, Barry Plath, is furious with his estranged wife. He appears to hate everything about their split and her new life. He says he feels like she blindsided him. Barry also refuses to discuss anything about Kim Plath’s new boyfriend.
During Barry’s confessionals, it is easy to see that he is still hurting. Even though he tries to maintain calm in front of his children, he is furious with Kim and Ken. The entire situation looks to be eating away at him. But his hands are tied. It is what it is. He knows he needs also to move on.
Welcome to Plathville: Ken & Kim’s Masterplan
Fans of the “Welcome to Plathville” family members and series have noticed some very detailed specifics now that Kim and Ken have come out publicly as a couple. It looks like Ken is spending quite a considerable amount of time now with Kim’s children.
Ken Palmer’s Instagram account shows several recent photos of him and Kim’s kids, mostly her daughters. But, he is either engaging in an activity with one or more of the girls or at least posting about it. This has to be driving Barry Plath crazy. This could also be the new couple’s master plan all along.
For the most part, Ken Palmer shuts off the comments on his posts. But it is evident to some fans that this relationship between Ken Palmer and Kim Plath looks to have been going on long before it was allegedly revealed.
It is also accurate to say that Kim loves every minute of it. Now that their relationship is out, things seem to take a stranger’s turn—this is speculative. But after skimming the photos on Ken Palmer’s social media pages, some feel it looks like he is swooping in to take on a new “Welcome to Plathville” role as Dad to Kim’s kids. This could allegedly all be a part of their (mostly Kim’s) master plan.
Stay tuned. Things look like they are going to get crazy!
