Lord Hillingdon married the Honourable Edith Mary Winifred Cadogan, daughter of Henry Cadogan, Viscount Chelsea, in 1916. They had two sons and three daughters. Lady Hillingdon was chairman of the Central Women's Advisory Committee of the Conservative Party and was made a Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire in 1939. She was godmother to her niece Sarah, eldest daughter of John Spencer-Churchill, 10th Duke of Marlborough.
