After the Day of the Barricades in 1588, he was disgraced by his liaisons with the Catholic League and left court. Henri IV recalled him in August 1590 and again made him garde des sceaux, a post he then held until his death.
The Hurault had owned the château de Cheverny for several generations but, after it was seized by the king, Philippe Hurault was forced to buy it back from Diane de Poitiers. He had the estate raised to a viscountcy then a comté (in 1582), and also had a house to the east of Paris, on the Roquette estate.
His Mémoires from 1567 to 1599 survive.
