Lord Howard was born in London, the son of Henry Howard, 5th Earl of Suffolk. He was admitted to Magdalene College, Cambridge, in 1685. He was returned as Member of Parliament for Arundel in January 1694, but was unseated on petition by John Cooke in February. He was again returned for Arundel in 1695, holding the seat until 1698. From 1697 to 1707, he was Commissary-General of the Musters. In 1705, he was returned for Essex, but left the House of Commons when he was created Earl of Bindon in 1706. He was the Deputy Earl Marshal in England 1706–1718. In 1708, he was appointed to the Privy Council.

In 1709, he succeeded his father as Earl of Suffolk. In 1715, he was appointed Lord Lieutenant of Essex and First Lord of Trade, offices he held until his death in 1718.

In April 1705, he married his second wife, Lady Henrietta Somerset, daughter of Henry Somerset, 1st Duke of Beaufort and widow of Henry Horatio O'Brien, Lord O'Brien. They had no children.
