In the same year he succeeded his father as baronet; however he was attainted by the Irish Parliament after the Glorious Revolution of 1689. Three years later Bulkeley entered the Irish House of Commons for Fethard (County Wexford), representing the constituency until his death in 1710. On 16 February 1685, he married Lucy Downing, daughter of the eminent statesman and financier Sir George Downing, 1st Baronet at Westminster Abbey. Their only son died an infant. Bulkeley died in 1710 and was buried at Ewell. With his death the baronetcy became extinct. Richards's widow remarried William Worth, of the Court of Exchequer (Ireland). Lucy had been Worth's fourth wife, Worth's third wife had been Richard's stepmother, Dorothy Whitfield. Lucy died only two years after her first husband, Richard Bulkeley.
