From the Daily Telegraph 1 February 2017 DEATHS         THYNNE  -   Lord Christopher on 27th January.  Husband of Antonia and father of Sophie and Alexander.  Private funeral.  Memorial to be arranged.

I believe that Alexander was born out of Wedlock, he only came to my attention during that recent program about Longleat in which he was featured as doing some artistic work on the estate, he was stated as being the nephew of the marquis.

Alexander Thynne, 50, .....

He is said to have smoked cannabis since the age of 16, having grown up with his mother in North Africa and not meeting his aristocratic relatives until he was 14.

He was given a cottage on the Longleat Estate in 1992.

His father, Lord Christopher Thynne, made headlines in 1992 following a major feud with his brother, Lord Bath. The colourful Lord Bath sacked Christopher as a manager of Longleat shortly after inheriting his title.
