Biography
Hawaiian "princess" of the House of Kawānanakoa, sometimes called Kekau. She is referred to by many as a princess, a common honorary bestowed to descendants of titled subjects of the Kingdom of Hawaii or important figures in Hawaiian history, although she held no official title and wielded no power or influence in the Hawaiian state government.
She was the only child of Lydia Liliuokalani Kawānanakoa, born during her marriage with William Jeremiah Ellerbrock. At the age of six, she was legally adopted by her grandmother, Princess Abigail Campbell Kawānanakoa, in the Hawaiian tradition of hānai with the intention that she remain a direct heir to a possible restoration of the kingdom. As Liliʻuokalani's great grand niece, she was considered by some to be heir apparent should restoration of the monarchy occur.
Kawānanakoa was an expert horsewoman and owner of ranches in Hawaii, California, and Washington State. She was a 20-year cumulative breeder of AQHA quarter horses.
She was heiress to the largest stake in the estate of her great-grandfather, James Campbell, a 19th-century industrialist from Ireland. When the estate was converted into a corporation in 2007, her share was estimated to be about US$250 million.
On 1 October 2017, Kawānanakoa married Veronica Gail Worth in Honolulu. Kawānanakoa died on 11 December 2022 at the age of 96.
