Welcome To Plathville’s Kim Plath Desperately Tries To Control Relationship With Ken Palmer
Welcome To Plathville’s Kim Plath and Ken Palmer make things official in an upcoming episode, but fans are accusing her of being controlling again.
Welcome To Plathville’s Kim Plath has been changing in the shows most recent season, but according to a preview clip from the next episode of Welcome To Plathville season 5, Kim’s controlling nature is just as prevalent as it’s ever been. After her marriage to Barry Plath came to an end, many wondered what Kim would do next. Though she seemed stuck in her marriage in a way that felt unhealthy, most fans weren’t under the impression Kim would start dating right away. Given her past and the fact that she spent the majority of her adult life in the same relationship, most agreed she’d take time for herself.
Instead, Kim launched into a relationship with her boyfriend Ken Palmer quickly. In an Instagram preview for the next episode of Welcome To Plathville season 5, Kim is shown guiding Ken into saying they’re boyfriend and girlfriend, pushing him into defining their relationship.
The clip is a perfect example of Kim’s controlling nature according to fans, who flooded the Instagram comments with concerns, like @lonnie_lana who explained, “She’s not asking she’s TELLING you.” Another user, @syelauren, shared, “It gives manipulator hypocrite and narcissist, all in one when it comes to this lady.”
Kim Plath & Ken Palmer’s Relationship Explained
Kim and Ken’s relationship started in mid-2022 after her 24-year marriage to Barry came to an end. The couple weren’t quick to define their relationship for the public, as Kim was still going through a public divorce and later, was dealing with legal issues due to her DUI arrest. On Welcome To Plathville season 5, Ken has become a part of Kim’s life as their relationship has grown closer. While the series is just showing off Kim and Ken’s chat defining the relationship, it’s clear the couple has been getting closer and finding their relationship to be a source of comfort.
Kim’s nature hasn’t always been the most loving or caring, which is why many Welcome To Plathville fans take issue with her pushing Ken into defining their relationship. While Kim’s marriage to Barry was entirely different, many are seeing a pattern of Kim pushing for something she wants and her partner folding because they want to make her happy. In the preview clip from the upcoming episode of Welcome To Plathville, Kim’s pushing for Ken to call her his girlfriend comes across as controlling in a way that Kim’s always been in her relationship with Barry, especially when she explains that she’d already decided their relationship status before asking Ken.
Welcome To Plathville’s dedicated viewers have analyzed Kim’s actions for years now, especially as her life has come crumbling down before her eyes. After her relationship with Barry ended, many wondered if Kim would take time to herself and try to be single for the first time in several decades. Rather than dedicating her time to finding herself, Kim jumped into a new relationship quickly. Though she seems to like Ken, Welcome To Plathville fans hope she isn’t just taking him along for a bumpy ride.
