Olivia Plath told Ryan Bailey in the So Bad It’s Good podcast that being in front of the cameras wasn’t easy, and she described her situation as “fight or flight.” In that case, why would she want more of it? Actually, many Welcome to Plathville fans think that the best thing she could do is to walk away. Well, it seems that the TLC star has two reasons for wanting to return.

Kim Plath Is One Reason For A Return

It’s no secret that Kim Plath and her former daughter-in-law despise each other with deep intensity. She suggested that Ethan’s wife was possessed. Meanwhile, Olivia dissed her controlling ways and called her out over the misuse of funds. So, she wants to be in the Welcome to Plathville show again simply to annoy Ethan’s mom. Distractify cited her as saying:

“I’m a petty b—h. I know that [Kim] thought that I wouldn’t be a part of Plathville anymore when Ethan and I got divorced and I know that she’s disappointed… I’m just reveling in that a tiny bit.”

Olivia Plath also claimed in her interview, that “…if you’re going to idolize a lifestyle that promotes the dysfunction that we see, then you have to show the flip side.” Is she bringing the flip side? Perhaps she sees herself as some sort of Jill Duggar who outed her upbringing in her book, “Counting the Cost.” Team Kim can’t stand Ethan’s ex, but she helped to create the show. Why should Kim get to take the cake to the bank and eat it as well?

What do you think of Olivia Plath returning to the TLC show for Season 6? Are you surprised that she wants that specifically to make Kim Plath upset?
