Departure and continued career (2020–present)[edit]
In December 2020, Roman announced she would be leaving The New York Times to begin a "new chapter" elsewhere. A representative from the paper stated that "Alison decided to move on from The [New York] Times and we’re very thankful for her work with us."

Roman continues to share recipes through social media and a Substack newsletter. She began a new series of YouTube videos in January 2021 titled Home Movies.

On her website, alisoneroman.com, she releases her monthly newsletter.

Many believe that part of her rise to success can be attributed to her ability to seem relatable to her viewers. A New Yorker article written a year and a half after her departure from New York Times noted her bringing up her desire to have her eggs frozen, in another instance she named a recipe after a breakup. Later on, author Lauren Collins brings up how Roman was sure to disclaim her vacation she enjoyed in upstate New York by noting that the house didn't belong to any of them.

More currently, Roman is hosting a TV show on CNN to be released sometime in the fall of 2022. The show will focus on Roman’s travels through places like New York and Italy and her cooking journey throughout. The show will be produced by Zero Point Zero Productions. They also produced Anthony Bourdain’s Part Unknown series. It is Roman’s first TV show.

As of December of 2021, 450,000 copies of her cookbooks had been bought.
