How mean is the king to only acknowledged his illegitimate daughter after she marries A Future King

Last night I had A DAD Dream that followed on from each other and I want a opinion on something that happened in it

Basically 23 years ago The King, who at the time was The Crown Prince, had A 1-night Stand with A Commoner, the result was A Child and even though The King, who at the time was The Crown Prince, refused to acknowledge her as his illegitimate daughter he bought the mothers silence by arranging for her to save his life, and in return he made his illegitimate daughter A Senior Baroness before she was even born, naturally it was many years before she started ruling

22 years after the girls birth, which is 8 years after the Baroness her mother died and she officially became A 14 year old Senior Baroness, whilst on A DAD Version of A Summer Holiday, The Dreams words not mine, The 22 year old Senior Baroness meets and falls in love with The 25 year old Crown Prince of A Neighboring Country, who also falls in love with her and the 2 become engaded

Her father/who is her homelands King, finds out that his illegitimate 22 year old Daughter is engaded to a 25 year old who will 1 day rule A Neighboring Country and he decides that as soon as she's married he will acknowledge her as his illegitimate and legitimize her claim to the/his throne

But make no mistake her father/who is her homelands King, isn't doing this out of love, he never loved her and he only made her A Senior Baroness that ruled A Large Barony because he'd rather do that then risk the scandal that would have been caused if word got out

So he only acknowledges her as his illegitimate daughter and legitimize her claim to the/his throne because by doing so he ensures that her oldest child/his oldest grandchild, will 1 day inherit the thrones of 2 countries that are both very large, very powerful and very powerful

So how mean is the king when he only acknowledgedes her as his illegitimate daughter after she marries A Future King? and even then he only does it to ensure that her oldest child/his oldest grandchild, will 1 day inherit the thrones of  2 countries that are both very large, very powerful and very powerful
