What will Welcome to Plathville Season 7 be about?

After 25 years of marriage, Kim and Barry Plath called it quits, finalizing their divorce in 2024. Kim began dating Ken Palmer, while Barry turned his attention to rebuilding bonds with their children. According to TLC, the former couple is still walking a delicate tightrope in the aftermath of their split, doing their best to maintain harmony and present a united front as their kids navigate milestones of their own, including marriage, divorce, and the challenges of growing up.

Season 7 will likely follow their ongoing co-parenting journey, along with Barry’s recent glow-up and evolution in the wake of the breakup.

In Season 6, Ethan debuted a new girlfriend, but opted to keep their relationship and her identity private from viewers and his family at the time. Though they went semi-official on Instagram a few months ago, he has since deleted any pictures of her, leaving fans to believe they have broken up.

In February 2024, daughter Lydia married Zac, but their road to “I do” was not as smooth as they would have liked. In Season 7, audiences get the inside peek on the hurdles the young couple had to jump to get to their happy ending.

The season will also follow Moriah Plath, who has taken on the role of the family’s “black sheep” as she continues to forge her own identity. A dark-haired, tattooed standout among her blonde siblings, Moriah’s ongoing journey toward self-discovery will be a key storyline in Season 7.

Following Lydia’s wedding, Micah and Veronica ended their tumultuous relationship. Earlier in the year, Veronica took to Reddit and with a verified account started to share messy details of a physical altercation between Micah and his brother Isaac on the eve of the wedding, which left Micah hospitalized due to a broken nose.

In addition to the fight, Veronica has been using her Reddit account to tell her truths, including alleged “red flags” she’s witnessed in the family. According to one post: “Our relationship was the opposite of a Disney princess. The woman saved the man. I wouldn’t say he wasted my time he taught me a valuable lesson. I’m glad I didn’t marry him as well. The family wanted us to get married so he could take half of everything I own. One of the biggest red flags was when Kim would always try and sell me things like her boat or she wanted his name on the title of my houses.”

These statements were shared in a post discussing Micah’s possible new romantic interest.
