His mother was Pamela Margaret Fletcher〔(thepeerage.com Alexander Patrick Greysteil Hore-Ruthven, 2nd Earl of Gowrie )〕 (who later married Major Derek Cooper.〔(findarticles.com )〕 His younger brother is Malise Ruthven. His father was killed in action in 1942, at which point he became his grandfather's heir apparent.

He was educated at Eton and Balliol College, Oxford, and later at Harvard University. He succeeded in the earldom of Gowrie on the death of his grandfather on 2 May 1955, and also succeeded his great-uncle (his grandfather's elder brother) the 10th Lord Ruthven of Freeland as 3rd Baron Ruthven of Gowrie on 16 April 1956 (the Scottish lordship of Ruthven of Freeland passed instead via the female line).〔 Lord Gowrie inherited Castlemartin House and Estate at Kilcullen, County Kildare, Ireland, from his great-aunt Sheelagh Blacker in 1967, and later sold it to Tony O'Reilly.
