Wallis and her husband, Simpson, enjoyed the perks of her being a favorite of the king, all manner of gifts and boodle appeared, and the opportunities for contacts with other important people, business, social, etc, was well worth 'sharing' Wallis with the king.
The Simpsons never expected the king to fall in love with Wallis, she had replaced another favorite, and expected to be replaced in turn at some point, and was in it for the fun and prizes.
And then Eddie fucked up everything by falling in love with her. and once that happened, she was stuck with him.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
