It's still got me stumped. Can't make any sensible word out of Dai + hell.

Thanks, Pete, but other than her being a Welsh woman how does that fit with the clue?

I cheated Andrew and looked up "underground welshmen" on google/'bing which came up with this Granted, it does seem a bit tenuous.

It's "women's", rather than "woman's", so I am assuming some anagram of laundry, cooking, washing, etc.
Taff and 'ell, almost gives you fellate, if that helps.

Ha! Got it!
Underworld = Dis Welshman = Taff
Dis+Taff = Distaff; of, or concerning, women!

Thanks for the "Taff", Emjay. I'd considered 'Dis' for the underworld, but had always paired it up with Dai. D'Oh!

A Dis is a ghost or spirit, ie of the underworld, James.
