Kim & Barry Plath’s Marital Issues

On Welcome to Plathville Season 4, Kim and Barry’s separation has been documented. Fans watched as Kim opened her own dance studio, began dressing differently, lost weight, and had a complete transformation.

Barry wondered if his wife was going through a mid-life crisis.

Ultimately, these changes helped her realize that she was unhappy in her marriage. She mentioned that she’s been a mom and a wife for the past 25 years and that she hasn’t had an opportunity to be herself.

Throughout the season, Kim has separated from her husband and began sleeping on the couch or staying at their rental properties.

On the Tuesday, June 28 episode of the show, she let the word “divorce” slip while talking to her daughters. This left Barry shocked, of course.

Now, in real-time, the Welcome to Plathville stars have officially split up.
