Reality TV has a way of drawing us into the lives of its stars, and Welcome to Plathville is no exception. The show, which gives viewers a peek into the lives of the large Plath family, has become a fan favorite, particularly for the drama and tensions that have unfolded over the years. One of the most talked-about storylines involves the fractured relationship between Moriah Plath and her sister-in-law, Olivia Plath.

A Once-Close Bond Torn Apart
Ethan Plath, the eldest son of Kim and Barry Plath, married Olivia, and from the beginning, Olivia formed a strong bond with Moriah. The two became close friends, sharing not just family ties but also a deep understanding of the strict, religious upbringing that both had experienced. For a while, their relationship seemed unbreakable, with Olivia even helping Moriah as she pursued her music career. However, as many Plathville fans know, things took a drastic turn for the worse, and their once-tight bond unraveled.
The Accusations That Sparked the Feud
The rift between Moriah and Olivia began with a serious accusation. Moriah claimed that Olivia had uploaded her music to a streaming service without her consent and had stolen the proceeds. Given how close they had been, this accusation was a bombshell, and it sent shockwaves through their relationship. Olivia vehemently denied the allegations, but the damage had already been done. Moriah’s accusation was a betrayal that Olivia couldn’t easily forgive, and it marked the beginning of the end for their friendship.
The Truth Comes Out
As Season 5 of Welcome to Plathville progressed, more details about the incident began to emerge. In Episode 2, Moriah reiterated her claim, saying that Olivia had deleted her songs and added them to her own account to make money off them. Olivia had always been supportive of Moriah’s career, offering her free photoshoots and other assistance, so this accusation was particularly hurtful. However, as time went on, Moriah came forward with a confession: the story she had spread about Olivia stealing her music was a lie.

During a recent episode, Moriah finally apologized for her actions, admitting, "I'm really sorry that I made up a story about you stealing my music and broadcasted that to everyone." While Olivia appreciated the apology, it was clear that too much had been said and done for them to repair their friendship. Olivia expressed skepticism about Moriah’s motives, especially given the timing of her apology, which coincided with the release of Moriah’s new song—a song Olivia described as "your burn book basically against me."
Where Do They Stand Now?
As of now, it seems that the relationship between Moriah and Olivia is beyond repair. Despite Moriah’s apology, Olivia has made it clear that she no longer trusts her sister-in-law. The two have moved on with their lives, but the hurt and betrayal linger, casting a shadow over any potential reconciliation.
For fans of Welcome to Plathville, this feud is a reminder of how quickly relationships can change, especially under the pressures of family dynamics and public scrutiny. While it’s always possible that Moriah and Olivia could find a way to rebuild their friendship, for now, it appears that both women are focusing on their own paths—separate from one another.
