The couple had three sons, including the current 15th Duke of Bedford. From 1975, when the 13th Duke and Duchess retired as tax-exiles to Monaco, Lord and Lady Tavistock reluctantly took over the running of Woburn Abbey, doing much to modernise the house and showcasing their daily life and estate management in the BBC series Country House. They had already handed over management of the Abbey to their eldest son when they became the 14th Duke and Duchess of Bedford in 2002, with the Duke dying just a few months later. The Dowager Duchess now lives primarily in New Zealand.
