Who stars in 'Welcome to Plathville' Season 5?
The 'Welcome to Plathville' Season 5 teaser reveals at least part of the ongoing season's cast.
Barry Plath
Barry was a Christian fanatic who persuaded his ex-wife Kim to abandon her "sinful" lifestyle in order to have a family. Barry and Kim had ten children, but one of them died in an accident when he was just 17 months old. Despite the tragedy, the family persevered and finally landed a TLC program.
Kim Plath
Kim's life has changed drastically following her divorce from Barry last year. The nine-year-old mother has been focused on herself and recreating herself. She's also embarking on a new love life. Kim's route has altered now that she's moved on with someone else, and it's full of surprising twists and turns.
Ethan Plath
Ethan is the oldest of the Plath children, born in May 1998, just 10 months after Kim and Barry's wedding in July 1997. He is a technician and "lover of classic cars," according to his Instagram.
Ethan captivated spectators as the first child to move out and defy several of his parents' ultra-conservative standards. On 'Welcome to Plathville', fans saw Ethan attempt new activities for the first time, such as drinking soda, going to the gym, and even ordering a beer in front of his alcohol-free parents.
Olivia Plath
Olivia is a wedding photographer who was born in Rocky Mount, Virginia on April 25, 1998. Olivia, like the Plaths, was raised in a fairly traditional home. Olivia is one of ten children raised in a strict Christian household.
She and Ethan Plath met on a family camping vacation in 2014. Olivia and Ethan had a long-distance romance for the first three years, according to their wedding website.
Micah Plath
Micah, a self-described country lad, has ditched his short, neat cut for longer locks. Micah loves changing up his looks as his modeling career progresses.
Micah's modeling career has taken off after he relocated to Los Angeles. He is growing his portfolio and experience while continuing to achieve success with his agency.
Moriah Plath
Moriah, a reality TV personality from Cairo, Georgia, was born on August 28, 2002. Moriah and her family gained fame with the debut of 'Welcome to Plathville' in November 2019.
Moriah is Barry and Kim's fourth child. The couple's tenth child, Joshua, tragically died at the age of 17 months in 2008.
Lydia Plath
Lydia is a singer and songwriter. Although she joined the program in the second season, she has quickly grown to prominence, thanks in part to what fans perceive to be her deceptive method of dealing with people.
In 2022, she released two songs, 'Yahweh My God' and 'One With the Father'. She has been a member of her family's band since 2015. The band has generated at least 30 songs.
Kenneth Palmer
Kenneth is a private pilot and a Lively Technical College aviation repair teacher.
Prior to the rumors about him and Kim, he was already close to the family. But there doesn't appear to have been any overlap between Kim and Barry's divorce and her seeing Kenneth, much less anybody else.
'Welcome to Plathville' Season 5 airs Tuesdays on TLC at 10 pm ET.
