He was twice offered the throne of Albania. From 1911 until his death he was a Conservative Member of Parliament. His eldest half-brother was George Herbert, 5th Earl of Carnarvon (1866–1923), who discovered the tomb of Tutankhamun, who predeceased him by five months. During most of his life, he had poor eyesight and was almost blind by his early 40s.
