In 1674, he was succeeded by his son, Charles, who served in political offices under Charles II and James II & VII. In 1693 the second earl joined the exiled king in France and was subsequently tried for treason in absentia on 23 July 1694 and the titles attainted by act of Parliament on 2 July 1695.
