Henry Lyttelton Alexander Hood, 8th Viscount Hood, born 16 March 1958, is a British peer and solicitor. He succeeded to the viscountcy on 2 October 1999 on the death of his father Alexander Lambert Hood, 7th Viscount Hood in 1999. His mother Diana Maud Lyttelton (1920–2008) was the second daughter of George William Lyttelton of the Lyttelton family (Viscounts Cobham), thus making Lord Hood a nephew of noted entertainer Humphrey Lyttelton. Not long after succeeding his father to the title, he lost his seat in the House of Lords due to the House of Lords Act 1999 which removed all but 92 hereditary peers. He most recently stood as a crossbencher in the 2016 by-election following the removal of Lord Bridges for non-attendance without being on leave of absence and came third.
Lord Hood married Flora Casement in 1991. The Viscountess is a maternal cousin of actor Hugh Grant. The couple have three sons and two daughters.
Lord Hood was educated at Eton College and obtained a Master of Arts (Scotland) degree at the University of Edinburgh before gaining law qualifications at the College of Law in 1987. He is a well-established practising solicitor specialising in family law and mediation and heads the Family Law department at Hunters in the City of London.
