Milo Yiannopoulos will no longer be working on Ye's political team after he was fired.
Yiannopoulos confirmed the departure in a Telegram post.
"Ye and I have decided that I should step away from his political team," Yiannopoulos wrote.
Ye said that Yiannopoulos would join his team as a campaign manager on November 25 after the rapper announced he was running for president.
Insider reported that he hasn't yet filed paperwork to begin that process.
Ye, the rapper formerly known as Yeezus, continues to be mired in controversy over his antisemitism, which has included praising Hitler and posting a swastika on his social media accounts.
Yiannopoulos was among a group of right-wing figures who attended a dinner at the Mar-a-Lago home of Donald Trump. After it was reported that another Ye staffer, a white supremacist, was in attendance, Trump received backlash.
Yiannopoulos told NBC News that he arranged the dinner between Trump and Ye in order to make Trump's life miserable because he didn't think he'd handle the news well.
Yiannopoulos said he wanted to send a message to Trump that he has neglected, ignored, and abused the people who love him the most, the people who put him in office.
The dinner was not a plot against Trump, as was reported by NBC.
On Thursday, Ye removed references to Yiannopoulos and Fuentes from his account.
Yiannopoulos, a right-wing provocateur, resigned as an editor of a right-wing news site after he appeared to condone pedophilia.
Yiannopoulos says he is an "ex-gay" and plans to open a conversion therapy center in Florida.
A representative for Ye didn't reply immediately.
