American Kim Plath is a TV personality, a naturopathic physician, and an entrepreneur. She is most well-known for appearing with her husband and their nine children on the TLC reality show Welcome to Plathville. Taking care of so many children is sure to be costly, so what exactly is Kim Plath’s net worth?
Who Is Kim Plath?
Kim Plath was born Kimberly Ann Doherty Anderson on August 30, 1970. She keeps much of her private life out of the press, so information about her parents and any siblings remain unknown. Her education history is also something that has been held under wraps to this point.
Kim exchanged marriage vows with Barry Robert Plath on July 19, 1997. Their eldest child, Ethan Daniel, was born on May 14, 1998. Their second child, Hosanna Elizabeth, was born August 1st, 1999, followed by Micah James on March 10, 2001. Then came Moriah Jasper, who was born August 28, 2002, Lydia Joy, who was born February 4, 2004, and Isaac Gabriel, who was born October 21, 2005.
The couple’s seventh child, Joshua Samuel, was born on April 15, 2007 and died in a farm accident on September 19, 2008 at the age of 17 months. The couple’s last three children are Amber Grace (born February 24, 2009), Cassia Shiloh (born June 2, 2011), and Mercy Shalom (born February 13, 2013).
In November 2019, Kim Plath and her family were introduced to the world through a new TLC reality TV show called Welcome to Plathville. The show followed Kim and Barry, who are Christian fundamentalists, as they raised their large brood on a 55-acre farm in a rural community away from society in the south of Georgia. Their conservative Christian values led them to bring up their family with homeschooling, limited technology, no television, and a ban on sugar.
Over the four seasons of the show that have aired, much has changed for the Plath family. The anti-processed foods and refined sugars policy has been relaxed to the point that the Plaths’ sometimes order pizza. The children are no longer as sheltered as they once were, with Isaac and Lydia now having Instagram accounts. However, Kim does not have a presence on social media sites, including TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter.
While Kim spent more than 20 years as a stay-at-home wife and mother, she also worked as a naturopathic doctor out of her home and has recently opened a dance studio. For more than 25 years, Barry has worked as a transportation planner for URS Transportation. They both maintained their jobs throughout filming for Welcome to Plathville.
Kim Plath’s Net Worth And Assets
According to published reports, Kim Plath and her husband Barry have a combined net worth of $3 million. However, this is merely an estimate as the details about how much money they earn per episode of Welcome to Plathville have not yet been disclosed. It’s also unclear how the money is split up between members of the family.
Kim and Barry have made quite a good living for themselves with other jobs in addition to the show, and they both had their own careers for most of their marriage. Kim will also be making some money from opening her own dance studio. Kim also makes money by renting out their farmhouse on Airbnb.
Future Effects On Net Worth
Kim Plath’s net worth will increase in the future with more seasons of the show, although the future of the show is unknown at this point. The Welcome to Plathville stars surprised viewers in June 2022 with an announcement of their decision to divorce.
According to a released statement from the couple, “After considerable thought and discussion, we have decided to end our marriage. While this was not an easy decision, we know it’s the best choice for both of us. We have been through many highs and lows in our 24 years of marriage and as we navigate this new chapter in our lives, we will co-parent our amazing children.”
