Welcome To Plathville: Olivia Plath Alleges Repeated Firearm Threats By Ethan Plath

Former Welcome To Plathville cast member Olivia Plath accused Ethan Plath of aggressive and problematic behavior. She recalled recurring incidents of firearm-related aggression. She said Ethan used to steal guns that she owned and kept them loaded under mattresses and in drawers. He took guns without her consent. Whenever she inquired about missing firearms, he reportedly gave misleading explanations, heightening her sense of danger.

Olivia recalled a specific incident from March 11, 2023, when Ehan expressed his desire to shoot someone he blamed for Olivia’s departure from Christian fundamentalism. Olivia recorded the audio on her phone where he made the threats against these people and desired to shoot them. Ethan even described gun violence as necessary in one particular incident when he referenced the tragic Club Q anti-LBGTQ hate crime from November 2022, further alarming Olivia about his intentions.

Welcome To Plathville: Olivia Plath Speaks Out On Alleged Gun Threats & Production Oversights

Ex-Welcome To Plathville star Olivia Plath also confronted Ethan in a tense audio exchange, asking if he would harm anyone who influenced her. Ethan denied the claim, saying his statements were hypothetical. Olivia, however, perceived them as a direct threat, highlighting the intensity of their conflict. She felt unsafe at that very moment.

Olivia claimed that she had reported Ethan’s aggressive behavior multiple times throughout winter and spring 2023. Despite her efforts, the supervisors often dismissed her concerns. During one couch interview, she brought up Ethan’s threats, but they told her he “did not mean what he said.” Editors removed discussions involving gun-related violence from the footage. They ignored other firearm-related threats she reported entirely, leaving her feeling unsafe and unheard.

Olivia’s allegations have raised questions about on-set safety protocols and the handling of potentially dangerous behavior within production environments. Fans on Reddit have expressed shock and concern over Olivia’s allegations. One user commented, “The extreme hesitancy and discomfort displayed by Olivia, one of the last few times she filmed with Ethan in that MN apartment, all makes so much sense now… She is rightly afraid of that man.” Olivia’s story underscores the potential dangers and pressures faced by cast members in high-profile shows, as well as the importance of taking threats seriously.
