The Welcome To Plathville Star Shared News Of His New Relationship Earlier This Year

Welcome to Plathville fans know Ethan as the oldest of Barry and Kim’s children. Back in October 2018, he married a photographer named Olivia.

However, the two announced they would split five years. The couple filed for divorce in 2024.

Earlier this year, Ethan debuted a new love in his life on social media. On New Year’s Day, 2025, he wrote, “Proud to introduce my sweet girlfriend!”

“She truly is one of the sweetest, kindest, and patient people I’ve ever known! Looking forward to the next year and what it has to bring. Wishing everyone a very happy new year! Here we go 2025!”

At the time, Ethan did not reveal her name or even how they met. In the carousel post, however, he did share a variety of photos of the two together. Notably, Ethan could be seen going from clean-shaven to sporting a beard throughout the photos, as if to suggest a long passage of time.

Taking to the comments, many fans were happy for Ethan, while others hoped he had done some growing since his previous relationship with Olivia. A few commenters, as previously reported, even noted that they thought Ethan’s new girlfriend also resembled Olivia.

Ethan Plath Himself Responded To A Comment On The Post

In the comments, one fan started off a conversation writing, “Hope she is prepared to be a trad wife.” This inspired a response from Ethan himself. As he simply wrote, “Oh, yeah.”

This spurred a conversation among fans, especially those who didn’t know what a “trad wife” was. As one fan shared, “A ‘tradwife’ is a woman who embraces a traditional gender role, typically involving: Staying home, keeping house, having children, and being subservient to her husband.”

Some fans also came to Ethan’s defense, feeling that there was nothing inherently wrong with being a “trad wife,” as long as that’s what the wife wants.

That said, other similar comments appeared on the post, leading to other similar conversations. Various comments seen throughout the post included:

• “What’s wrong with that? Some women are happy to have that role.”
• “Nothing wrong with that if my husband is going to financially support me. I love to clean, cook, do wash, mow lawns, pick weeds. Worked all my life. Would be nice to just be a ‘Trad wife now.’”
• “Pretty sure there are still some woman who would love to be the ‘traditional’ wife. Best and most important role I’ve ever had in my life was staying home to raise my children and be a traditional wife, while my husband worked hard for us and gave us everything we ever wanted/needed!”
• “Seriously that’s what you take away from someone sharing just photos.”
• “No what he means is, he’s moved on and found someone that makes him happy.”
• “100% you can tell just by looking at the pictures.”
