Ethan Plath’s girlfriend, Teegan Nichols, clapped back at Veronica Peters’ claim that she has an OnlyFans account during the latest Welcome to Plathville episode.
“Ethan was really upset. I thought it was really funny. I couldn’t stop laughing,” Teegan said during the Tuesday, September 2, episode of the TLC series. “And obviously it’s not true.”
Teegan, who made her reality TV debut earlier this season, took the accusation in stride.
“I just felt really flattered that she felt like she could say that about me,” she told the cameras. “Because not everyone, I guess, could have an OnlyFans.” (OnlyFans is an adult-themed site where users can post naked photos, videos and more adult-specific content.)
Teegan added that Micah Plath’s girlfriend, Veronica, had only met her once — at Lydia Plath’s proposal — before she made the allegations.
“I don’t know, it’s really fan-like behavior in my opinion to be so obsessed with someone that you’ve met one single time,” Teegan confessed. “Veronica must be very insecure about something.”
Ethan went public with his and Teegan’s relationship in January, sharing a photo of the couple via Instagram.
“Proud to introduce my sweet girlfriend! She truly is one of the sweetest, kindest, and patient people I’ve ever known!” she wrote at the time. “Looking forward to the next year and what it has to bring. Wishing everyone a very happy new year! Here we go 2025!”
Teegan was then introduced to fans during season 7 of Welcome to Plathville, where she was shown meeting Ethan’s family little by little.
Veronica, meanwhile, made her TLC debut during season 6 of the series in August 2024. Throughout season 7, she and Micah have weathered many storms, including Veronica’s revelations that Micah previously cheated on her.
While Micah confirmed his infidelity and apologized to Veronica on the show earlier this season, issues surrounding trust resurfaced during Tuesday’s episode while they attended a counseling session.
During therapy, Veronica claimed that Teegan had an OnlyFans account and Micah couldn’t help himself from searching for it.
“I don’t think it’s normal to look up your brother’s girlfriend’s naked photos,” Veronica told the therapist, to which Micah responded, “I didn’t find any.”
Veronica then took the counselor through what had just transpired, explaining, “He’s in his phone and I look over his shoulder and he’s looking up his brother’s girlfriend’s naked photos on the Internet. … She’s like a naked model on the internet. That’s weird.”
Micah noted that when they were driving to therapy, Veronica told him she saw a story that claimed Teegan was on OnlyFans, so he tried to “get the facts.”
“He wants to see it,” Veronica alleged. “No, I don’t really want to see it at all,” he fired back.
Veronica was upset, telling Micah that he is “not seeing her again ever,” referring to Teegan. “I don’t trust you. You’re not allowed around her now,” she quipped.
“He’ll end up in bed with her. You’re not seeing her anymore,” Veronica claimed.
Micah was taken aback, asking his girlfriend, “You don’t think my brother’s girlfriend is someone I know that is 100 percent off limits? I’m defending my brother in this scenario and looking with his best interest.”
Veronica pointed out that he’s “hurt” her in the past by cheating, noting it’s a trigger for her even though it’s Ethan’s girlfriend.
“It’s not just this. It’s so many things. When she finds out something that paints certain family members of mine in a bad light, she is so quick to not fact check them but just spread them,” Micah explained to which Veronica admitted, “I’m very much eye for an eye.”
While Veronica and Micah left therapy still together, her accusations didn’t sit well with Micah’s family.
“Veronica’s done so much crap in the last few months that’s completely unnecessary, including reaching out to [my ex-wife] Olivia [Plath],” Ethan said during the episode. “She enjoys the fighting. She enjoys the drama.”
He claimed, “She’s more interested in digging up dirt on other people. I guess maybe she just wanted it to be true.”
Teegan, meanwhile, took the high road, saying that Veronica’s insecurities must be the reason for her accusations. “At the end of the day, I don’t know if it’s her relationship with Micah, her relationship with the family in relation to just herself even. It’s just sad, that’s all,” Teegan added.
Welcome to Plathville airs on TLC Tuesdays at 10 p.m. ET.
