Lady Catherine says any marriage between Darcy and Elizabeth would be a disgrace. By way of explanation, she points out that though Darcy and Lizzy are technically in the same social class (a gentleman and a gentleman's daughter), her connections are with the families of people in trade and attorneys (where his are with families of elevated rank). She also points out that the Bennets have a serious scandal associated with their family.
