As the year comes to an end, Welcome to Plathville followers can't help but be reminded of all the times Kim Plath infuriated them. The matriarch of the Plath family recently made some extreme changes and started only focusing on herself instead of her family. Rather than sticking to her morals, Kim threw in the towel and started making up for the lost time from her youth.
Welcome to Plathville fans first met Kim, who was arrested for a DUI, as a devoted stay-at-home mother who was committed to running her household and homeschooling her nine children. The Plaths came across as a modern-day von Trapp family, as they had their own instruments and loved to sing at church. Kim was the moral police for her entire family, often calling out the black sheep, her daughter Moriah Plath for her style and attitude. However, over the last year, viewers noticed some strange changes in Kim.
Kim Plath Is Now Wearing Mini Skirts
When Kim stepped onto the screen for Welcome to Plathville season 4, fans' jaws hit the ground as the mother sported a tight electric blue mini-skirt. During the scene, she was teaching her younger daughters how to dance. Viewers were stunned by the sudden wardrobe change, especially since Kim, who comes across as egotistical, had always had her girls wearing long skirts and no pants. The change seemed to happen overnight and left viewers unsettled with the new Kim.
Kim Plath Has Stopped Homeschooling Her Younger Kid
During the earlier seasons of Welcome to Plathville, it seemed as if Kim enjoyed being the teacher to the Plath's family young children. She had explained to viewers that the public school system wasn't meant for her children as she wanted a more Christian upbringing. Fast-forward to Welcome to Plathville season 4, and Kim left her girls high and dry without a lesson plan insight. Kim's daughter Lydia Plath was forced to pick up the slack and take over teaching duties. Fans wondered where she had run off to, and it turns out Kim was interested in her now-closed dance studio, dating, and going to the gym more.
Kim Plath Left Barry Path
Kim and Barry were two kindred spirits as they navigated their way through their fundamentalist Christian beliefs. After living it up at Florida State and partaking in sex, drugs, and rock and roll, the two heard the voice of God call to them to start living a simpler life. However, Kim grew bored with her Christian lifestyle and realized Barry wasn't her true love after all. Welcome to Plathville season 4 showed the two falling out of love and Kim moving out. This move was the nail in the coffin for most fans who felt Kim was ditching her entire family.
