The divorce between Metcalf and Roth was finalized on November 26, 2008. They share joint custody of their three children: Will, Donovan, and Mae.

She received Emmy nominations as Outstanding Guest Actress for her performances on 3rd Rock from the Sun and Monk. Her film work earned further recognition when she was nominated for a Golden Globe, SAG Award, and Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress in 2017 for her role as Marion McPherson in Greta Gerwig’s Lady Bird.
In 2018, Metcalf returned to television as part of the rebooted Roseanne series on ABC, reprising her role as Jackie Harris alongside other original cast members. Her performance has continued to earn praise from both fans and critics, reinforcing her longstanding influence in American television.
