He was ADC to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland 1889-1892.
He never married. As a fit young man of 30 he suffered a bad fall in the Altcar Steeplechase in 1897 which left him severely brain damaged, a hopeless invalid and mentally unstable. His engagement to Mary Heathcote-Drummond-Willoughby, daughter of the 1st Earl of Ancaster was called off and he eventually died from his injuries. On his death at 34 his title passed to his brother Osbert Molyneux, 6th Earl of Sefton. He was buried in St Chad's churchyard, Kirkby, near Liverpool.
