“Welcome to Plathville” returns to TLC on Tuesday night, September 5th, for Season 5. If reality fans thought there was a lot of drama during the first four seasons, you would not believe what will unfold during the new season. No Plath will escape the turbulent family drama about to be unleashed.
“Welcome to Plathville” spoilers show that the Plath family members will continue struggling to keep their relationships intact. There have been many changes for each of them since last season.
In Season 5 fans will find that the family is more divided than ever. Something has set the family against the eldest sibling, Ethan Plath’s wife, Olivia Plath. Last season, Olivia made nasty accusations about her mother-in-law, Kim Plath. She accused her of stealing money from her oldest son, Ethan.
Welcome to Plathville’s Olivia Past Comes Back to Haunt Her
Olivia claimed Kim went behind her son’s back and used his credit card without his knowledge. She claims that this alleged financial abuse was going on for quite a period of time. But luckily, she says she discovered what her husband’s mom had been doing behind his back.
When Olivia shared the accusations during her “Welcome to Plathville” confessional in the previous season, it started an avalanche of problems within the family. Now, it looks like sister Moriah Plath and her brother Micah Plath are stepping up to defend their mother.
Moriah is making it her mission to ensure everyone knows what Olivia did to their mom. She also has decided to sever ties with her brother’s wife and her former best friend. Not only that, she also appears to have convinced the rest of her siblings to do the same. This move will undoubtedly cause a huge issue between the siblings and Ethan once he discovers they have all turned their back on Olivia.
