Trump fires Apprentice co-star

Donald Trump has reportedly fired one of the executives famous for her role as a tough-talking judge on the hit US reality show 'The Apprentice'.

Carolyn Kepcher is being replaced on the show by his daughter and is no longer with the company, a Trump representative told the New York Post.

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 property tycoon 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.

Trump's daughter, Ivanka, will replace Kepcher on 'The Apprentice,' and his son, Donald Jr, will replace the show's other judge, George Ross, the Post said.
