Despite the serious and dignified manner that Karim presented to the outside world, the Queen wrote that "he is very friendly and cheerful with the Queen's maids and laughs and even jokes now—and invited them to come and see all his fine things offering them fruit cake to eat".
Meskipun Karim tampil serius dan berwibawa di luar istana, Sri Ratu menulis bahwa "dia benar-benar ramah dan ceria pada dayang-dayang Ratu dan tertawa dan bahkan bercanda sekarang—dan mengundang mereka untuk datang melihat-lihat semua barang bagus yang ia punya dengan menawari mereka bolu buah untuk dimakan".
