On 30 June 1741, he married Louise-Elisabeth Chambon, reputed to be more than promiscuous. Madame d'Épinay tells us she pushed the absence of prejudice to the limit where it takes another name. She had a son, born on 7 June 1750. She died in December 1752, struck down by smallpox.

We know he led political missions in Geneva.

On 1 August 1762, he married his second wife, miss Nettine Walckiers, daughter of a Dutch banker and thus became Jean-Joseph de Laborde's brother-in-law, owner of the château de Méréville.
