Olivia Plath said she thought Ethan's 'threats were escalated to TLC.'

“I was under the impression that these threats were escalated to TLC to ensure the safety of the cast and crew,” she continued. Olivia noted she learned “recently” the reports “were never passed on to the network,” which she said was a “potentially dangerous oversight that could have resulted in physical harm.” “When I shared these concerns with D, I emphasized that I believed these threats were credible and that he had the means and opportunity to carry them out,” she continued. “On March 11th, 2023, Ethan told me that he wanted to shoot D and J with a gun because he perceived they were responsible for my departure from Christian fundamentalism.”

After he said he wanted a divorce, Olivia Plath alleged Ethan said he was going to 'go buy guns' as they 'were needed to restore order.'

“For example,” she wrote, “he said, ‘Good, it’s about time someone did something about those people,’ referring to the Club Q anti-LBGTQ-motivated hate crime/mass shooting that occurred on November 19, 2022, tragically taking five lives.”

She also claimed he held a gun while watching TV and mimed “shooting characters on a show that he did not like”: Black Americans.

Oliva shared that when he told her he wanted a divorce, he said he was leaving their apartment to “go buy guns” as they “were needed ‘to restore order.’”

Olivia Plath revealed her concerns about Ethan were 'dismissed.'

She said she “reported several of the incidents” to D and “noted several times” she didn’t feel safe around Ethan. Olivia also claimed she brought up Ethan’s “threats about shooting J and D" during one of her “couch interviews in or about March 2023.”

Olivia detailed D “dismissed” her concerns, explaining “she didn’t believe Ethan meant what he said.” While she trusted D would report what she’d said to the network, she said she was not asked any further questions and “anything related to his threats of gun-related violence was edited out of the interview.”

To date, no comments have been made by Ethan or the network regarding Olivia’s allegations.
