        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Chrissy Teigen</strong> is taking a break from Twitter following her <strong>public spat with Alison Roman</strong>.</p><p>&#8220;This is what always happens. The first day, a ton of support, then the next, 1 million reasons as to why you deserved this. It never fails,&#8221; the 34-year-old <strong>&#8220;Cravings&#8221;</strong> author <a href="https://twitter.com/chrissyteigen/status/1259563900149698562">tweeted on Sunday</a>. &#8220;I really hate what this drama has caused this week.&#8221;</p><p>Teigen said that following the initial support from social media users during the foodie feud, many went on to blast her with false rumors.</p><p>&#8220;Calling my kids Petri dish babies or making up flight manifests with my name on them to &#8216;Epstein island&#8217;, to justify someone else&#8217;s disdain with me seems gross to me so I&#8217;m gonna take a little break,&#8221; she wrote in the post before making her Twitter account private.</p><p>Roman, <strong>a food columnist for the New York Times</strong>, stirred the pot when she unintentionally criticized Teigen&#8217;s trajectory in the food industry.</p><p>“What Chrissy Teigen has done is so crazy to me,” Roman <strong>told the New Consumer</strong> in an interview last Thursday. &#8220;She had a successful cookbook. And then it was like: Boom, line at Target. Boom, now she has an Instagram page that has over a million followers where it’s just, like, people running a content farm for her. That horrifies me and it’s not something that I ever want to do. I don’t aspire to that.”</p><p>Teigen <strong>retorted with a tweetstorm</strong> on how disappointed she was to learn that someone she had admired would put her down so much.</p><p>“This is a huge bummer and hit me hard. I have made her recipes for years now, bought the cookbooks, supported her on social, and praised her in interviews,” she&nbsp;tweeted along with a link to Page Six’s reporting.</p><p>She added, “We do this work ourselves, and there is no monetary gain yet. It is just work, work, work and the reward is you liking it. So to be called a sellout … hooooo it hurts.”</p><p>Roman <strong>later made a public apology</strong> to the model, admitting that she regretted her comments.</p><p>“Hi @chrissyteigen! I sent an email but also wanted to say here that I’m genuinely sorry I caused you pain with what I said,”&nbsp;<a href="https://twitter.com/alisoneroman/status/1258946786061881344" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Roman tweeted late Friday</a>. “I shouldn’t have used you /your business (or Marie’s!) as an example to show what I wanted for my own career — it was flippant, careless and I’m so sorry.”</p><p>She added, “Being a woman who takes down other women is absolutely not my thing and don’t think it’s yours, either (I obviously failed to effectively communicate that). I hope we can meet one day, I think we’d probably get along.”</p>]]></content:encoded>
