Despite succeeding to the peerage in 1970, he did not make his maiden speech in the House of Lords until 20 December 1995. He opened his speech, which was on the subject of chequebook journalism, with a statement that his main interests lay with the tourist industry.[3]
In 1975, he married Rosemary Frances Scoones Beauclerk, a daughter of Francis Harold Scoones of West Ham and his wife Rose Frances E. Callis, and the ex-wife of Murray Beauclerk, 14th Duke of St. Albans.
In 1999, he was recognized by the Spanish government as the Marquess of Olías, a title in the Spanish nobility that dates from 1652 and was previously held by his mother, María Luisa de Urquijo y Losada.[4]
