Lieutenant Harriet Beaumont Simms, USN (played by Karri Turner) is a character in the "JAG" TV series.

Harriett first appeared in the second season episode "Crossing the Line" as an Ensign aboard the USS Seahawk where she had replaced her future husband Lieutenant Bud Roberts as the ship's public affairs officer. Later in the season she transferred to JAG headquarters, attached to the administrative staff and she began her relationship with Bud. Despite some last minute second thoughts Harriet marries Bud in the penultimate episode of the third season [cite episode |title= Wedding Bell Blues |series= JAG |serieslink= JAG |season= 3 |number= 23] . While Navy regulations state that married couples cannot serve together, Admiral Chegwidden pulls some strings and has Harriett transferred to the department of the Inspector General while remaining attached to the JAG headquarters administrative staff.

Harriet and Bud have five children together:
* A.J. Roberts (named in the honour of RAdm A.J. Chegwidden, however not taking his proper first names "Albert Jethro.")
* Sarah Roberts (named in the honour of Lt.Col Sarah MacKenzie. Unfortunately, the child died after child birth.)
* James Kirk Roberts (Named in the honour of Capt James T. Kirk since Bud was a big Star Trek fan.)
* Unnamed twins (A boy and a girl) towards the end of the series.

Harriett was promoted twice during the series run first to Lieutenant J.G after serving two years as an Ensign in the fourth season episode "River's Run" and secondly to full Lieutenant in the sixth season episode "Lifeline".

Harriet comes from an old-money family who never really understood her career choice in the Navy or her marriage to Bud.

Her awards include the National Defense Service Medal and Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal.
