you would actually be expected to make it a public issue at that time. And also to kill her.

Expected why who? Nobody knew!
Also, I don't think execution was actually the standard punishment for adultery but I could be wrong.

[hikari87.livejournal.com]

For the king's wife, it was, because it was considered treason (it was like that for a long time, I mean, Henry VIII and all.) Plus in the actual legend, Guinivere does almost get executed for it, but a lot of weird crap happens and she doesn't die Idk about how it would be with a fiancee though.

[kathkin.livejournal.com]

Yeahhh Henry VIII was about a thousand years or so after this show is technically set - this is early medieval Britain we're looking at, the Tudors are late medieval/early modern. I've read some early medieval law tracts and I honestly don't remember them having execution as a punishment much at all. Definitely nothing about what to do if a king's wife cheated, or whether kissing would even count as adultery.

So basically, it wasn't historically accurate as far as I know, nor was it accurate to the legend because as is often acknowledged they'd bollocksed up the whole Lancelot and Guinevere storyline royally.

This show has NEVER been historically accurate so that reasoning is complete crap. The writers do whatever the hell they want regardless of history so they had no need to have Arthur make things a public issue or banish Gwen. He could've simply ended their relationship privately and asked her to leave the castle. Instead, the writers had him humiliate her (without any of her friends standing up for her) and banish her upon threat of death without even considering that maybe there was something fishy about her behavior.

It was disgusting.
