The Welcome to Plathville star grew up incredibly sheltered
During a Season 1 episode of “Welcome to Plathville,” newlyweds Ethan and Olivia Plath attended a local church. Although Ethan grew up extremely religious, the Plaths didn’t attend a formal parish. As a result, he didn’t have much interaction with the outside world. As Olivia explained, “Ethan didn’t grow up with friends, he didn’t grow up with peers his age, he wasn’t allowed to hang out with kids and so that kind of transferred into his young adult years where he … didn’t have any friends his age,” (via YouTube). The “Welcome to Plathville” star argued how important it was for the couple to mix with people in church, acknowledging how wonderful it is to see Ethan flourishing there.
During Season 2 of the show, it was revealed Ethan and Olivia had cut off all contact with his meddling parents, with the wedding photographer confirming to People in December 2020 they were still not speaking. According to Olivia, Ethan’s parents didn’t think their marriage would last, so the couple is incredibly proud of how far they’ve come. “I think the best part of us being married is the fact that we get to do life together as best friends,” Olivia enthused, explaining, “the fact that we were able to be friends before we got married was, like, an unheard-of thing in many ways.” She reckons that strong foundation helped them go the distance, noting, “I’m really, really glad he’s my best friend.”
