While it's not exactly clear when Kim and Kenneth started dating, there's a good chance he'll be part of Welcome to Plathville Season 5. Outside of the show, Kenneth is a private pilot and an aviation maintenance instructor at Lively Technical College.

He was already close to the family prior to the rumors surrounding himself and Kim. But it doesn't look like there was any overlap in terms of Kim and Barry's separation and her dating Kenneth, let alone anyone else. That being said, Kenneth already has a close relationship with at least one of Kim's sons, so if things get serious, it shouldn't be difficult for the kids to transition to Kim having a long-term boyfriend.
