‘Welcome to Plathville’ Couple Ethan and Olivia Reveal Move to Minnesota

Olivia Plath is bundling up for a chilly winter. The Welcome to Plathville star announced Thursday that she and her husband, Ethan Plath, had recently relocated from Florida to Minneapolis, Minnesota. 

“Good morning from snowy and sunny Minnesota,” the TLC personality said on her Instagram Story. “I feel like there’s not a lot of sunny days in the winter so I’m very happy for the sun this morning but cat’s out of the bag, if you didn’t know Ethan and I moved up to the Minneapolis area a couple of weeks ago.”

“The past few weeks have been insane moving from Florida, trying to find an apartment, buying a new car, making this apartment look like a home,” she added.

The reality star explained that she was ready to embrace the cold weather and enjoy lots of winter sports and activities. 

“I’m not a huge cold weather person so this winter’s going to be interesting,” she shared. “But I am a big outdoorsy person so I plan to spend my time skiing and snowboarding and making memories with our amazing family up here that we love to pieces.”

Olivia posted several snaps of the couple’s arrival in Minnesota, memories she called “golden moments from November.” One photo featured a driveway chalk drawing that read—“Welcome to MN Ethan and Olivia.”

The couple’s big move north came only weeks after they celebrated their fifth anniversary. Ethan shared several images captured during the couple’s trip to Paris to mark the milestone.

He captioned the Instagram post—“Happy five year anniversary of our first kiss baby girl!❤️”

Olivia shared her own cozy photo of the couple writing—”Happy 5-year smooch-iversary 💋”

Ethan and Olivia, who wed in 2018, took time apart in 2021 to reevaluate their relationship and reconciled during Season 3. 

Ethan reflected on his relationship with Olivia in September, posting a romantic photo of the couple on Instagram.

“When high school sweethearts find each other there isn’t much that can separate us,” Ethan wrote alongside the snap.”Love you sweetheart.”

Olivia replied to the post—“I love you baby. You’re right – been through a lot, and in the end it’s brought us closer. I think I picked a winner.”

Ethan’s relationship with Olivia has caused dissension within the Plath family, and his parents, Barry and Kim, have not been shy about sharing how they feel about their daughter-in-law. TLC featured a snippet of the family discord during the Season 4 finale, which aired in August.

“I met Kim when I was 16 and she when I first met her, made me feel important,” Olivia said. “She kind of took me under her wing and in many ways kind of made me her new best friend. She was calling, emailing me every day.”

“I trusted her more than I did my own mom, and at that point in my life, I really, really needed a mom figure. Because the mom I had was not nurturing, and also being one of 10 kids, it was really easy to feel overlooked and forgotten and I just really needed to feel important to someone.”

“I think what changed is when I started to realize that I was just being used,” Olivia continued. “I felt like I was only of value to her if I did what she wanted me to do.”

Olivia spoke about changing her husband’s computer password to block Kim from allegedly accessing his credit cards. 

“It went from like, ‘I love you so much’ to ‘You have the devil in you,’ and it just kind of changed overnight,” she said.
