Welcome To Plathville season 7’s finale left viewers with a trio of relationships updates ranging from expected to shocking as the season concluded. While Welcome To Plathville season 7 has largely been about Lydia Plath marrying Zac Wyse, there have been other relationships that have captivated viewers throughout the season and in past seasons of the long-running TLC series.
While the couples on Welcome To Plathville have long been the same, the series has been actively keeping an eye on updates between the pairs, as post-show news has come out about some while the family’s been tight-lipped about other pairs. Knowing that Welcome To Plathville season 7 has kept nearly every relationship on shaky ground, the finale finally provided major updates.
Micah Plath Broke Up With Veronica Peters In Front Of His Family
An Intense Confrontation Saw Their Relationship Implode
Throughout Welcome To Plathville season 6, viewers got the chance to know Veronica Peters as Micah Plath’s girlfriend, and while she fit in with the Plath family ahead of the current season, her standing with the Plaths suffered between season 6 and season 7. By the time Welcome To Plathville returned for its current season, things between Micah and Veronica were strained.
As Veronica and Micah headed into the Welcome To Plathville season 7 finale, it was clear that the pair weren’t doing well. After a season of strained communication and difficult behavior from Veronica, the Plath family got involved in Micah’s relationship, ganging up on Veronica in a group confrontation. The finale revealed that after struggle and infidelity on Micah’s behalf, the pair finally broke up.
Micah chose to end things with Veronica in front of his family after a difficult argument, stemming from the fact that Micah’s brother Isaac Plath physically fought him over comments Veronica made at Lydia’s wedding. After Micah got back to the Plath family home from the hospital, the family sat down with Veronica and ultimately saw Micah end their relationship entirely.
Kim & Barry Plath Finally Finalized Their Divorce After Years Of Struggle
The Plath Parents Ironed Out The Details
As the matriarch and patriarch of the family, Kim and Barry Plath weren’t a couple viewers expected to see split up, but the pair announced they’d be getting a divorce after the first few seasons of the series. Although their separation has been announced for years, their divorce has been a struggle to figure out as they continue to co-parent their children.
Although Barry and Kim have long been ready to be divorced according to their remarks on the show, it’s been tough to understand why they haven’t split up yet. Regardless, throughout Welcome To Plathville season 7 they’ve been clear that a respectful divorce was their end goal. The pair shared during a celebratory wine bar outing that they’d finalized their split and were officially divorced.
Ethan & Olivia Plath Sat Down To Talk, But It Didn’t Move The Needle
His Lack Of Communication Or Care Was Disrespectful
Ethan Plath, the eldest son of the family, spent the early seasons of the series married to Olivia Plath, but the couple struggled to maintain their relationship as it warred against the Plath family’s wishes. Ethan and Olivia announced they’d be separating in the aftermath of Welcome To Plathville season 5, but have drawn out their divorce over several years.
Although Olivia and Ethan have shared that their divorce was initially filed right after they chose to split, the filing was done incorrectly and eventually was closed because of how long it took for them to come back together to resolve the issues. Meeting up for the first time in over a year during the Welcome To Plathville season 7 finale, Ethan and Olivia were tense.
The former couple was set to meet at a local hotel at 4, but Ethan ran about two hours behind schedule because of his farm chores and failed to genuinely apologize. Instead, Olivia was met with a set of hostile demands from her ex, who was rushing their divorce paperwork after announcing his new relationship. Unfortunately, the Welcome To Plathville pair are still legally married.
