Jackie Kennedy once rode naked in a convertible with architect John Carl Warnecke, the man who designed the gravesite of her husband, US President John F. Kennedy (JFK). Intimate details of their secret relationship have emerged in the architect’s posthumously published memoir.

In his book, Camelot’s Architect: The Untold Story of Jackie Kennedy, Lafayette Square, and a Secret Romance, due out on November 10, Warnecke recounts his decades-long friendship with the former First Lady and an unusual trip they took to Hawaii in 1966.

Jackie and the architect met in 1962 at a dinner party at the British Embassy. Their relationship grew particularly close while they were working together on a project to preserve Lafayette Square in Washington, D.C. Warnecke worked with the Kennedys during their years in the White House, and his friendship with Jackie lasted for decades.

In the summer of 1966, the architect was in Honolulu, where he was working on a design for the state Capitol building. He suggested that Jackie rent a house nearby. Officially, she had travelled to Hawaii to visit a mutual acquaintance.

Warnecke recalled that shortly after settling in, Jackie called him and invited him to see her beachside home. When he approached the house from the shore, he found the former First Lady lying on a large beach towel. She was wearing an enormous straw hat — and nothing else.

“She was completely naked. I caught her by surprise, and she gasped, but realized that I liked what I saw. She looked beautiful and was, of course, relieved to discover that it was me, rather than a stranger, who had stumbled upon her,” the architect wrote.

But that was not the only occasion on which Jackie left him feeling flustered.

One evening, as they were getting ready to go out for dinner, Warnecke went inside to fetch his jacket. When he returned, he found that his convertible had already been driven out of the garage, with Jackie sitting in the back seat. And, as it turned out, she was completely naked once again.

“I turned around several times to admire this extraordinary sight, but I wasn't quite sure how to react. She kept repeating, ‘I'm all yours. Completely. I want you to know how much I love you,’” Warnecke recalled.

On their way to dinner, the couple got caught in traffic before turning off toward a scenic spot by the water. The architect described it as a secluded place that belonged to just the two of them. Bathed in moonlight and accompanied by the sound of the ocean, they laughed and enjoyed the moment.

“My mission to help Jackie return to normal life had been accomplished,” Warnecke concluded, reflecting on their Hawaiian getaway.

Jackie later married Greek shipping magnate Aristotle Onassis, while Warnecke also started a family. They remained in touch and grew close again after Onassis’s death and the architect’s divorce.

“Nothing physical ever happened between us, but it felt as though we were still carrying on an exciting secret affair,” he admitted.

John Carl Warnecke died in 2010 at the age of 91. His recollections of his decades-long friendship with Jackie Kennedy have been published posthumously.
