AMPLIFIED 2015					1 Kin 2:22 King Solomon answered and said to his mother, "And why are you asking for ¹Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? Ask the kingdom for him also--since he is my older brother--[ask it] for him and for Abiathar the priest and Joab the son of Zeruiah [his supporters]!"

Amplified 2015 Translator's Notes:
Literal renderings, alternate translations or explanations.

Even though Abishag remained a virgin while attending David during his final days, no one was closer to him. Bathsheba evidently did not view Abishag's status as David's former nurse to be problematic, but Solomon immediately perceived marriage to Abishag as a claim to the throne, which was Adonijah's true intention in making the request. Abishag would have been considered an inheritance from David.
