CAIRO, GEORGIA: Ever since Barry Plath's separation from his wife Kim Plath in June 2022, TLC's 'Welcome to Plathville' star has made some dramatic changes to his life, embarking on a fitness journey as evidenced by his buff body seen in an Instagram Story posted by his son, Micah Plath.

'Welcome to Plathville' fans react to Barry Plath's stunning body transformation

In a Reddit thread of the r/WelcomeToPlathville subreddit, fans of the show expressed their disbelief at Barry's sudden transformation.

One user stated, "Revenge Body activated!" hinting at his separation from his wife, Kim, while another wrote, "And we’re here to pump you up."

Why did 'Welcome to Plathville' stars Barry and Kim Plath split?

Barry and Kim Plath's separation came as a considerable shock to fans as they didn't expect the traditional family to consider the move an option, with the wife stating that she didn't feel valued in the marriage, as per TV Seasons & Spoilers.

However, many viewers felt that their split may stem from the matriarchal setup of the family, as Kim supposedly maintained a dominating personality within the household.

In one of the episodes, Ethan Plath even called her out for being unnecessarily demanding with the children, expressing his disbelief that Barry hadn't confronted his wife regarding the situation.

Eventually, Barry and Kim decided to end their marriage after being together for 24 years, announcing it in June 2022 during 'Welcome to Plathville' Season 4.

Where is Kim Plath now?

Following the split, Kim Plath left the couple's 55-acre South Georgia farm and moved into a rental property. Just after news of their separation was made public, Kim was arrested on charges of driving under the influence and property damage.

She was first taken into custody at the Wakulla County Corrections and eventually released.

The Plath family also had a son named Joshua, who died in an accident at 17 months old.

Who is Barry Plath?

Barry Plath is the 55-year-old patriarch of the Plath family. For over 25 years, he worked on the 55-acre Plath family farm in rural Georgia before the family sold the farm and moved into town.
