Fans Pick Up On Tension

While some people believe there is an underlying grudge between Olivia Plath and Lydia Meggs, others just think it is a typical sister relationship.

  • “They are toxic for each other. There is an uncurrent of unresolved anger between them. They love/hate each other.”
  • “From what I’ve gathered that is how a lot of sister relationships work…”
  • “Definitely seems like something is off with her. Something about her smile seems very disingenuous and manipulative.”
  • “Yea I feel like they are they type of sisters that pretend to be ‘those’ sisters who have omg so mUcHfUn but in reality there’s a lot of jealousy and old hurt and wounds as well as major judgement from both and built up resentment.”
  • “I think they’re doing pretty well working through it. They’ve only started talking again the past few years and have lived several states away from each other. It takes time to undo the damage their childhood religious trauma and dysfunctional family did. I think they could be really close with time without any lingering walls built up.”
  • “I thought that was all sisters? 🤷🏼‍♀️😁.”

There Is More Going On With Olivia Plath And Lydia Meggs

Other Welcome To Plathville viewers think there are other factors to why Lydia Meggs looks a bit bored by Olivia Plath talking.

  • “Her sister is a cool girl. Olivia is a dork.”
  • “I think it’s like you trying to go out and have a fun time but your friend (this case it’s your sister) ruining the vibes 🤣.”
  • “Honestly I’d say the camera man was the bigger buzzkill. Instead of having a fun night out they had to pretend to go out at like noon so they can film. It all looked awkward as hell.”
  • “I think she’s disassociating and I also think she is probably sowing her wild oats because of her repressed background. I know several young women like Olivia and her sister who grew up in very repressed homeschool environments. They went absolutely wild and still haven’t recovered. It’s very sad.”

Some Think It Is Less Complicated

Many people think the root of Lydia Meggs‘ facial expressions comes from boredom or listening to the same story frequently from Olivia Plath. Some feel it boils down to a harsh case of RBF.

  • “I think she was just drunk and trying to put on a serious face for serious camera talk and just overshot it.”
  • “Not only does she seem uncomfortable on camera, but she also seems to be a little embarrassed by Olivia’s naivety. Which I kind of understand. But Olivia is doing the best with the tools she currently has.”
  • “Because people have to find deeper meaning behind ‘resting b*tch face’ and ‘being on a camera is awkward for the average person’. Which is I think the only thing we’re seeing here.'”
