Carolyn Kepcher, a Trump organization executive famous for her role as a tough-talking judge on the hit television reality show "The Apprentice," is being replaced on the show by his daughter and is no longer with the company, a Trump representative said on Thursday.
The representative declined further comment, but the New York Post said Donald Trump's TV sidekick was fired after spending too much time cultivating her own celebrity with speaking engagements.
Kepcher had been with the real estate mogul for more than 10 years, most recently serving as chief operating officer of Trump National Golf Club in Westchester, New York, and helping manage another Trump golf club in New Jersey.
In an e-mailed statement from a representative, Kepcher said, "Donald and I had different visions for my future role in the company."
She also said she was grateful for the opportunities she had had with the Trump organization and is confident she is well prepared for future endeavors.
I wonder if he called her into the "real" boardroom. Carolyn, you're FIRED!
What I do is kick them in the pants with a diamond buckled shoe!
