'Welcome to Plathville' Season 4: Fans support Barry over split, say Kim left him 'confused' with 'no clue'

Ever since fans were introduced to the Plath family back in Season 1, it was clear as day that Kim and Barry ruled their home with an iron fist. Brought up with strict religious beliefs and homeschooling, the Plath kids had little to no freedom when it came to their lives. But, as the older ones started rebelling, things changed.

Season 4, however, seems like a far cry from Season 1. The latest season is less about the Plath kids and more about Kim, who is now rediscovering herself. And it has come at the cost of her marriage, seeing that she and Barry are now separating.

Seeing that Kim has already moved out, Barry sat down with the kids to talk to them about what has been going on. Although he was unable to give them any real answers, seeing that he was figuring things out himself, he used this time to check in on the children and see what they were all up to. Over the course of the conversation, Barry got emotional, while he reminded the kids that none of this was their fault and that no one should blame themselves for what happened. In turn, the children were supportive of their father, stating that it takes a real man to be vulnerable with his emotions. Fans, who've always had strong opinions about Barry, now seem to be rallying on his side. 

"I feel sorry for Barry. #WelcomeToPlathville" tweeted a fan. "I feel really bad for Barry honestly.. you can tell he is very surprised & confused. He genuinely didn’t realize how unhappy Kim was, and now it’s obviously too late.. the guy @ the gym is CLEARLY her crush + why she works out in the morning & Barry @ night #welcometoplathville" added another. "I lowkey feel sorry for Barry. From watching this show you know Kim was the leader. Barry did wtf she said and she had him convinced he was leading the family. Barry always been confused and had no clue wtf was going on #welcometoplathville" said a fan. "Kim is an awful person..she woke up one day & just decided to change the playbook on Berry making him the villain/reason for her unhappiness...not ok #WelcomeToPlathville #plathville" noted a fan. "Really hoping all the kids are Team Barry #welcomeToPlathville" wrote another.
