Last month, Byrne claimed the club's board of directors said her position was untenable , following her statement around the Republic of Ireland v Israel fixture in the UEFA Nations League.
Byrne, a sitting Sinn Féin TD for Louth, had said she will not be stepping down from her voluntary position with the Boynesiders and wanted to continue in the role.
However, Trivela Group issued a statement to say Byrne has been removed from her role.
"At this time, the board of directors consists of Benjamin Boycott, Marc Koretzky, Barton Lee, and club CEO Rian Wogan.
Mr Boycott for the time being, will serve as the sole chairperson, and the club will look to appoint a local director and co-chair in due course.
"Once again, we thank Ms Byrne for her longstanding and ongoing dedication to the club and its success."
The American-based owners of the club previously said they were parting ways with Byrne due to a "breakdown in the trust and confidence" and not on political views or beliefs.
