Feilding was the eldest son of William Robert Feilding, Viscount Feilding and his wife, Anne Catherine Powys. In 1799, Feilding's father died and his grandfather also a year later, whereupon Feilding inherited the latter's title. On 8 May 1822, Lord Denbigh married Lady Mary Elizabeth Kitty Moreton (a daughter of the 1st Earl of Ducie) and they had eleven children:
*Rudolph William Basil, Viscount Feilding, later 8th Earl of Denbigh (1823-1892)

*Lady Ida Matilda Alice (1840-1915), married William Malcolm Low.
*Lady Kathleen Elizabeth Mary Julia (1842-1882), married Charles Meysey Bolton Clive.
From 1830, Lord Denbigh was a Lord of the Bedchamber to William IV. In 1833, he was made a GCH, admitted to the Privy Council and transferred to Queen Adelaide's Household, first as her Lord Chamberlain, then as Master of the Horse. Lord Denbigh died in 1865 and his titles passed to his eldest son, Rudolph.
