Choiseul war der älteste Sohn von François Joseph deChoiseul, Marquis de Stainville und trug in seinen frühren Jahren den Titel Comte de Stainville.
Choiseul gewann die Gunst von Madame Pompadour, indem er ihr einige Briefe beschaffte, die Ludwig XV an seine Cousine Madame deChoiseul geschrieben hatte.
Choiseul arbeitete sowohl mit Fähigkeit als auch mit Fleiß, und obwohl es ihm an Hartnäckigkeit fehlte, zeigte er in seiner Amtsführung Voraussicht und Liberalität.
Choiseul negotiated with Benedict XIV, and the Bull "Ex Omnibus", solicited by Louis XV, was the occasion of numerous conferences between Rome and Versailles, being finally published, 16 October, 1756.
Choiseul's great political achievement in Europe, known as the "Family Compact" or alliance of all the Bourbons, has been widely discussed and he has been censured for not having understood the Polish question.
Hence, in 1762, Choiseul was quite ready to have parliament close the Jesuit colleges and, in 1764, decree the suppression of the Society in France.
