I was just wondering what it means when someone says something about her late husband. Like, what exactly does "late husband" mean?

That means that the "husband" has passed away. Late is an alternative way of saying "dead".

A late husband is a dead husband.

If a person is referred to as "late", they have passed away. It's a nicer way of saying "my dead husband". Hope this helps.

late husband = dead husband. And if for example if Ella had a late husband, she is a widow.
But, if you mean a late husband as in a tardy husband, he's just plain retarded =].

It means she's a widow because her husband has died.
late - recently deceased: the late Mr. Phipps.
