Who is Tracy Romulus, Kim Kardashian's chief marketing officer?

Romulus and Kardashian have shared a personal friendship for 15 years

Tracy Romulus, one of Kim Kardashian's closest confidants, is also her right-hand when it comes to marketing.

Romulus, 42, has been working alongside Kardashian, 41, since the beginning in 2017, as the reality TV star launched all three of her businesses under the KKW Brands umbrella. Romulus' music-producing husband Ray Romulus, 39, has also worked with Kanye West, 44, on recent music.

However, West seemingly has issues with Romulus. In a social media post shared Friday, the rapper accused the PR guru of "manipulating" Kardashian. 

Even before Friday's post, West has publicly shared his dislike for Romulus. While opening up about Kardashian's appearance on "Saturday Night Live," West seemingly threw shade at Romulus.
