Welcome To Plathville: Everything To Know About Olivia Plath’s Boyfriend Brendan
Welcome To Plathville star Olivia Plath has a new boyfriend, and viewers are itching to know everything there is about Brendan, who stole Olivia’s heart after her difficult divorce. Olivia, who was married to Ethan Plath from 2018 until late 2023, had a difficult time in her relationships before her divorce. While Ethan and Olivia’s marriage was problematic in its own ways, Olivia had a tough time maintaining relationships with the rest of the Plath family as well. With Welcome To Plathville season 6 showing the aftermath of Olivia’s relationship with Ethan crumbling, it’s been interesting to see her move forward.
Though Welcome To Plathville viewers have gotten to know Olivia as Ethan’s wife during their time on the series, her independent spirit has always been a major part of her personality. Even with Ethan’s controlling nature being a major part of her life as a married couple, Olivia was quick to make sure that she was being heard as much as possible. Ethan struggled to allow Olivia to be herself in their relationship, and when they couldn’t see eye-to-eye on major issues, the couple chose to split. Now, after Olivia’s difficult divorce, she’s found new love again with Brendan.
Olivia & Brendan Met By Chance
Although Olivia’s work as a photographer took her away from her life with Ethan often, it was still something she embraced. Working in a nomadic lifestyle, Olivia’s photography business is something she’s been happy to see succeed. Sharing photos of couples on her Instagram, Olivia’s talent behind the camera has taken her to new heights as a photographer throughout her career, and it even brought her to find someone she’d fall deeply in love with. Explaining on Welcome To Plathville that she and Brendan met because of a photography job she was on, Olivia’s career paved a path for love.

Olivia’s relationship with Brendan was introduced easily, with the pair explaining that they’d been together for about six months at the time of filming, and they were excited to continue exploring their relationship. It was shocking, however, to see Olivia and Brendan exchange sweet I Love You’s on camera.
While Olivia was affectionate in her past relationship with Ethan, her personality seemed a bit more stifled with her ex-husband. Seeing her with Brendan and watching the way she was affectionate with him made it clear that she was happy to be able to feel like herself in her new relationship. Olivia explained that the feeling of being seen, heard, and loved made her feel so much more in love with Brendan, and she was hopeful it was reciprocated in their relationship.

some time ago, it’s been made clear that Brendan and Olivia are still dating after the season’s end. During the summer, Olivia posted some photos of her travels with friends, and Brendan was soft-launched on her Instagram in one of the pictures. Shown holding Olivia’s face as they both leaned over a table at an outdoor patio, the couple appeared to be happier than ever in the cute shot. Though they haven’t confirmed their relationship on social media, the photo spoke loud and clear about what’s been going on in their lives.
While Olivia’s time on Welcome To Plathville has been focused on her relationship with Ethan and the rest of the family, the series has been working hard to try and feature more about Olivia on her own. When possible, Olivia has been shown with her sister, Lydia Meggs, and now with Brendan, giving her a life outside of the Plaths. Though Olivia seems to still want to be part of Welcome To Plathville despite having little to do with the family, seeing her happy and in a new relationship is a great step to the next phase of her life.
