Man, even if the male lead regrets or 'gets better', I still won’t like him. I’m the type of person who prefers proof over just reputation. Like, how can you hate someone just because someone else told you something? That’s just dumb. And you're a duke — you should have had a servant investigate first before you started believe nonsense.

I don't understand, what were the servants supposed to investigate again? They're generally not trained to be spies. I guess you could hire a guild to run a background check, but what are we looking for?
More to the point, it's an accepted fact that the wife came to their home with only four or five cheap dresses in a suitcase and nothing else. The husband and mother-in-law both thought that the wife had decent clothing worthy of her station in that suitcase (because you normally would!), and she was just wearing "servant's attire" out of protest.
The husband never takes part in the bullying--his declaration that he has no intention of loving her is as mean as he gets. He stops the servants' bullying whenever he sees it, gets her properly outfitted immediately upon discovering she has no clothes, and always speaks to her with respect, and when she claims that his family is treating her well, he's even nicer to her because he doesn't want to make her a liar.
He's a complete green flag. Do NOT worry about it. This is as far from a regret novel as you can get.
