‘Welcome to Plathville’ spoilers find that change is in the air…which seems to be a theme for the runaway TLC hit about the..err…unconventional family Plath.
We’ve seen the older Plaths become estranged from their parents and, while Micha Plath and Moriah Plath are trying to make peace, older brother Ethan has drawn a strong line in the sand…mainly thanks to his now estranged wife.
In the last episode of Welcome to Plathville, fans of the young couple were heartbroken when Olivia Plath told Ethan, her husband of three years that she needed time apart from him.
According to TLC spoilers, the upcoming episode will see Ethan, flying solo, put his Cairo home up for sale.
‘Welcome to Plathville’ Spoilers: Ethan Plath Puts His Cairo Home Up for Sale
The biggest contention in Ethan and Olivia’s marriage was Ethan’s parents- Kim Plath and Barry Plath’s treatment of Olivia. After Ethan stood up to his parents and cut ties, the two then grew distant through NOT arguing (or communicating much at all) about where they should live. Ethan wanted to remain in a small town. Olivia, who Ethan accused of changing, wants the bright lights of a bigger city like Tallahassee, Florida.
It seems Olivia calling for a separation caused Ethan to start making some changes on his own as we will see him put the couple’s Georgia home up for sale during this week’s episode.
“I’m putting the house on the market because I’ve come to the place in my life where I realize that getting out of Cairo is going to be a good thing for me,” 23 year old Ethan explains. He then shocks fans who believed him to be set in his ways by saying, “If I had the chance to live in different places, then I’d love to do that.”
He further admits, “Before I was real set on sticking here and that was that. Now, I don’t have any intentions of staying in Cairo whether things work out with Olivia and I or not.”
It seems something has been triggered in Ethan, and perhaps this is a good thing. Fans are hoping the marriage between these two will survive (of course for their sake, but also so Kim doesn’t get the chance to gloat), but then, nobody wants either party to sacrifice everything for the other.
“I think Olivia will appreciate the fact I’m kind of taking initiative to get the place sold,” Ethan reveals during a confessional interview. “I hope it will be a positive step for us moving forward.”
Here’s hoping Ethan means what he says about wanting to make a move, and not just to get his wife back…and then be terribly unhappy about it.
It seems we will all have to keep watching Welcome to Plathville airing on TLC Tuesdays at 10 p.m. ET to find out!
