On 29 November 1830 at Holy Trinity in Marylebone she married Thomas Oliver Plunkett, 12th Baron Louth in the Peerage of Ireland, of Louth Hall, County Louth.

Lady Louth died on 18 January 1878 at Louth Hall, near Ardee, County Louth. 'The death of her ladyship occurred rather unexpectedly, as on the previous day she gave a dinner party, and appeared, to all observance, in very good health' (Freeman's Journal, 21 January 1878).
