On 21 April 1629, he married Lady Margaret Sackville( 1614 – 1676), daughter of Richard Sackville, 3rd Earl of Dorset and Lady Anne Clifford.
They had eleven children:
Thanet was a staunch Cavalier, and in 1642 led a regiment to try to raise a rebellion in Sussex in support of Sir William Brockman in Kent.
However, Brockman's revolt quickly collapsed and the Earl was forced to surrender.

Sackville is perhaps best remembered as the first husband of Lady Anne Clifford.
They married on 27 February 1609, but their marriage was not a success; partisans of the Earl tended to blame Lady Anne's powerful personality, while partisans of the Countess pointed to the Earl's repeated infidelities, not to mention his extravagance and indebtedness – "one of the seventeenth century’s most accomplished gamblers and wastrels".
A rumor noted later by the antiquary John Aubrey had it that one of Richard Sackville's "concubines" was Venetia Stanley.

At the time of their marriage, Lady Anne had been in a long-running legal contest over her inheritance rights; in 1617, the 3rd Earl signed away her claim on contested ancestral lands to James I, in return for a cash payment which the Earl used to pay off his gambling debts.
The 3rd Earl and Lady Anne had five children between 1612 and 1621; however none of their three sons, born in 1616, 1618, and 1621, survived their father.
Their two daughters, Isabella (born 6 October 1612, died 22 August 1719) and Margaret (born 2 July 1614, died May 1676)
were longer lived.
Margaret became the wife of John Tufton, 2nd Earl of Thanet.
The 3rd Earl died at Dorset House, London without a male heir on Easter Sunday of 1624 at Dorset House, London, and was succeeded by his younger brother Edward Sackville.
