I don't think Khan's type of love was the knight in shining armor type. My guess is that his work with heart patients on death's door was so stressful that he didn't want a type of relationship with a 'damsel in distress' that he had to defend from her detractors all the time.
That does not mean that he did not care for Diana deeply. It's possible that he did care for her good qualities but that for his own self-preservation he decided to keep himself distant from the more troubling aspects of her life.
In my opinion, that is a healthy attitude to have and if Diana had had more people like that around, she may have been more motivated to curb some of her more destructive tendencies.
But I'm not impressed with his comment about the fountain. It is I agree not in keeping with his dignified silence of before and is totally unnecessary.
