'Welcome To Plathville' is coming back with Season 2 and viewers have been waiting eagerly to see what the new season has in store for them. Ahead of the Season 2 premiere, TLC decided to share a video that helped viewers get a glimpse into the relationship between Kim and Barry Plath. 

Barry recalled that the pair met at church and were just friends at first. While Kim never thought she would be in a relationship with Barry, things changed when she heard the voice of God telling her that Barry is the man she is supposed to marry. Kim was shocked to find Barry calling her a couple of minutes after she had this revelation.

The reality star revealed that Barry had started the conversation by sticking straight to the topic and discussing what the future had in store for them. It was at that moment that she knew he was the one for her. The pair have been together for 22 years and have raised nine children. 

However, their relationship was not always a fairytale story. Kim revealed they lost their child in a terrible accident and that took a toll on their relationship. She further added that for eight months she found it hard to accept the news about the death of her son. However, she managed to get past what had happened with Barry by her side. 

Kim admitted it was a hard journey for them as a couple while adding how things have changed for them over the years. The pair admitted their relationship has become stronger as they continue to take care of their children. While the pair thinks their lifestyle is quite remarkable, the internet does not think the same. 

The Plaths were criticized for their unusual lifestyle. At the same time, in the video that was shared by TLC, the internet could not get past the way Kim and Barry kissed. "Omg the kiss.... major third-wheel vibes going on here. yo, calm down!" read one comment. 

"That kiss was disgusting," wrote another. "We really didn’t want to see them shoving their tongues down each other’s throat," read a comment. "Please no more kissing from the Parents of the Corn that made me a little sick inside," said another. 

'Welcome to Plathville' airs on November 10 at 10 pm ET on TLC.
