He died of natural causes in 1588, just weeks after the defeat of the Spanish Armada. He had been unwell for some time, and may have been suffering from a form of cancer, possibly stomach cancer. He died at Cornbury, while on a journey to take the healing waters at Buxton. He is buried in the Beauchamp Chapel of St Mary's Church, Warwick.
