Also the comments here and the spoiler thread surprised me, wow. Was it so bad for the king to do polygamy?? I mean, he's doing that to fulfil his duty and not out of his desire. It'd be like that sometimes, especially in this kind of setting.
Monogamy with your true love sure is nice, but, eh. In this kind of settings, that's definitely a privilege that doubt the King has.
Confessing is ok, Ig, but, doing anything that stripped her of her knighthood (Marrying, taking her as concubine and such) would be an insult to Pauliana.
And... confession would be a borderline. She might gonna take it as him not sering her as a knight anymore, but a romance interest. Idk wether she'll be ok with that or nah.
