What it sounds like
The heir is unattractive.
What it really means
“She is bluntly insulting Jack Featherington’s appearance, assuming he is the heir she has heard about.”
Said today
“I heard the new heir was ugly.”
What was happening
Prudence says this as Jack arrives, before realizing he is the new Lord Featherington. Jack jokes that she must mean his father, turning the awkward insult into a jab at the late lord instead.
