He married, 1st Isabel of Mar, who died in 1297, they had one daughter Marjorie. How many illegitimate children he had is not known, but many sources claim he had a few, one being Robert who later became Robert of Clackmannan.

The title passed to his sister Marjory and husband Walter, 6th High Steward of Scotland, son Robert Stuart, Robert II. The present day House of Windsor is descended from this line.
