Welcome to Plathville season 7 has been Ethan Plath’s darkest season yet, and fans have finally been turning on him as he takes his villain status to new heights. Welcome to Plathville‘s premise has changed a lot since season 1.
In previous seasons, many of the different cast members took over the villain role, but in Welcome to Plathville season 7, oldest sibling, Ethan, had emerged as the antagonist. Online, he’s been facing a lot of heat for his hurtful words on-screen, hot takes on situations, and his treatment of others.
Ethan’s Become A Villain Over The Years In Welcome To Plathville
Ethan’s Journey Has Been Tumultuous
Ethan entered Welcome to Plathville in 2019 likable for his innocence and adoration of his now-ex-wife, Olivia Plath. The two broke up in season 5, and reportedly finalized things in season 6. Ethan did try to make things work with Olivia for years, after having married in 2018, but Ethan’s viewpoints and unwillingness to compromise earned him a lot of criticism.
Ethan wanted Olivia to be a traditional wife and cater to him; something Olivia wasn’t willing to do. Now, in season 7, Ethan has been painting himself as the one who ended his marriage and the one who came out on the right side of things, which is not the case in popular opinion.
Ethan has taken his villain status further with his season 7 behavior towards his sister, Lydia Plath’s now-husband, Zac Wyse.
Welcome To Plathville Fans Have Turned On Ethan
“Unbearable”
All over Reddit, posts like the one from u/NewWolf4995 have been addressing how problematic Ethan has been. Regarding how Ethan instigated a poor group experience for Zac, fans reacted.
“The fact that Ethan went out of his way by being disrespectful and giggling all up in his face as if he’s nothing. I applaud zach for sitting there and being mature and not taking anything to the heart, it just shows the type of MAN he is.”
In another Reddit thread by u/ilovedogs12345world, Ethan was deemed “unbearable.”
Another person added, “He’s not only unbearable he’s dangerous. He’s suppressed so many issues in his life that even though he’s laughing and smiling we can see the rage spilling out.”
It’s clear that whether Ethan was likable in the beginning, he is far from that image now as his bully persona has been picked up on and challenged by Welcome to Plathville fans.
Can Ethan Redeem Himself?
It Depends
Ethan’s treatment of Olivia and his marriage coupled with how he spoke to and about Zac is something Welcome to Plathville fans won’t easily forget. In order for Ethan to redeem himself in fans’ eyes, he needs to do some soul-searching and admit that how he’s been behaving and criticizing others is not right.
There is still a lot of season left in Welcome to Plathville, and Ethan will either make things better or worse for himself in the public eye.
