The Welcome to Plathville star, 25, answered fans' questions on her Instagram on Friday and admitted she’s in a “happy” place despite ongoing rumors that she and husband Ethan Plath have split. One fan asked the reality star, “Are you happy? You’re beautiful inside and out!” to which she responded in a video, “Thank you. I am very happy.” “It seems ironic to say I’m happy because I posted about my brother dying in May very unexpectedly, and that has brought a lot of soul searching, days and nights,” she continued.

Olivia Path/Instagram 'Welcome to Plathville' Star Olivia Plath Addresses Rumors That She and Ethan Have Split Her 15-year-old brother, Micah Meggs, was struck and killed by a car while riding an electric bike in May, prompting Plath to take an extended social media break. “When I went back home for his funeral, it to me, almost seemed like the crux of the world I grew up in, the fundamental Christian world, and the kind of world I want to create for myself as an adult. What I want to live in. What I want to embody now,” she continued in the video. “And it’s been a hard process, but I am at peace with the journey that I am on and where I am in life, and I guess that brings some level of happiness despite the fine lines and wrinkles,” she added. Plath also spoke about having "healthy tears" and travel plans, but notably did not mention her husband in any of the other Q&A video answers.
