I'll grant you that Burne-Jones ("The Golden Stair") Hunt ("The Lady of Shalott") and Millais ("Ophelia") sometimes depicted beautiful women - not always - but when they do, the ladies are stunning.

But Rossetti couldn't draw (sorry - he just couldn't - look at the abortive "Found" or his paintings of his wife, who made a lovely Ophelia for Millais) and most of his women look downright weird. The prettiest ones (and not that pretty) were just Fanny Cornforth drawn over and over and over again.

Were there any ugly people in Pre-Raphaelite paintings? I have not seen any.

Wow...I've never before seen anybody so succinctly express their seething jealousy of an artist's talent and his models' beauty in one fell swoop. Congratulations.
