‘Welcome to Plathville’: Olivia Plath Is Dating Again in Season 6 Trailer
The Plath family is getting a fresh start. After a tumultuous few years, the stars of TLC’s Welcome to Plathville are looking to put past conflicts behind them and focus on the future. That includes Olivia Plath, who is jumping into the dating pool for the first time after her split from Ethan Plath.
“Dating after marrying the first guy that you ever even held hands with is wild,” she says in a trailer (via X) for Welcome to Plathville Season 6, which premieres July 16.

At the end of Welcome to Plathville Season 5, Olivia and Ethan decided to separate after five years of marriage. Now, Olivia is tentatively starting to date. But it looks like she might have to kiss some frogs before she finds her prince charming.
“If you had one night with me, what would you want to do?” a sunglasses-wearing suitor asks a skeptical-looking Olivia.
Olivia’s ex Ethan is also putting himself out there. But he’s somewhat unsure of himself.
“It’s intimidating a little bit, to approach a beautiful woman,” he says.
Ethan Plath wonders how Olivia can let go ‘so easily’
Despite the challenges of dating, neither Ethan nor Olivia seems inclined to revisit their past romance. The wounds from their breakup are still raw.
“Between me and your family, you were going to pick your family,” Olivia tells Ethan.
“That’s because you made me choose,” he replies.
Later, Ethan tells Olivia that he doesn’t understand how she “can move on so easily” after all the time they spent together.
“Who said it was easy?” she responds.
Olivia also meets up with her former sister-in-law Moriah Plath. The two were once close but had a major falling out last season.
“I hope you know I really did love your brother,” Olivia says.
“I know,” Moriah says softly.
Kim Plath is ‘in transition’ in the new season of ‘Welcome to Plathville’
The trailer also teases exciting developments for the other members of the Plath family. Ethan’s younger brother Micah Plath has moved to Florida and has a new girlfriend. But he’s unsure if he wants to go public with the relationship.
Meanwhile, Kim Plath and Barry Plath are living their best lives after deciding to end their marriage in 2022.
“Personally, I’ve changed through the process of this divorce,” a smiling Barry says.
“The last couple of months have really been a time of transition,” Kim tells a producer. “I’m real sure that Barry hasn’t loosened up as much as I have.”
Welcome to Plathville Season 6 premieres Tuesday, July 16 at 10 p.m. ET on TLC.
