Fans of Welcome to Plathville seem to be split down the middle when it comes to their opinions on Olivia Plath. The wife of Ethan Plath is often seen as manipulative as she tries to free her husband from his strict upbringing. Now viewers are trying to figure out whether they like her or not.
There is no denying that the traveling photography business owner Olivia has brought a fair amount of drama to the show thanks to her dislike towards her in-laws, Kim and Barry Plath. Olivia also had a very sheltered upbringing, but she still finds it hard to find common ground with Ethan's parents. The Plath children were not allowed TV, sugar, or friends while growing up, so when Ethan married Olivia, a whole new world opened for him. Kim was not a fan of her daughter-in-law and even implied she was possessed. Now, Olivia and Ethan have taken it upon themselves to live a much more normal life but not all Welcome To Plathville viewers support Olivia.
