Lord Maatu and Lady Maatu children

Family life

Upon the passing of Prince Ma'atu, his eldest son Sitiveni Polu Le'uligana inherited the title, as Prince Tungi.

The second son, Sione Ikamafana Tuku'aho was raised by his paternal aunt, Princess Salote Mafileʻo Pilolevu Tuita. Such practice is commonplace amongst the Tongan royal family, whereby Princess Lātūfuipeka was also raised by her uncle, King George Tupou V.

Controversy

The then Prince Fatafehi 'Alaivahamamao Tuku'aho who was third in line to the throne, caused controversy in the Tongan royal family when he married his first wife, a commoner, Heimataura Seiloni on 21 July 1980 in a private ceremony in Hawaii. Heimataura Seiloni was the adopted daughter of High Chief Matagialalua Tavana Salmon Anderson of Tahiti and daughter of his wife Tongan singer and songwriter, Tuimala Kaho. The marriage resulted in Prince Fatafehi being stripped of his 'Princely' title. His wife later died of cancer in Nukualofa, 19 September 1985. Upon returning to Tonga after the passing of his first wife, he married 'Alaileula Poutasi Jungblut on 11 July 1989. ‘Alaileula is the granddaughter of the late Samoan head of state, Malietoa Tanumafili II.

Upon Prince Ma'atu's passing, his widow Alaileula Tuku'aho was embroiled in controversy because she allegedly authorised killing the cow owned by the King. This royal rift caused Alaileula Tuku'aho to return to Samoa for a brief time before resolving the issue with the royal family.
