Prior to her casting on the soap, Bibby appeared in episodes of Doctors and Brassic. Harriet Anne Bibby was born on 27 April 1998 in Market Rasen, Lincolnshire. She attended the De Aston School, where she featured in school theatre productions and eventually got into the National Youth Theatre summer school programme. After leaving De Aston, she attended the Academy of Live and Recorded Arts (ALRA), where she obtained a BA in acting. Whilst studying at ALRA, she appeared in various stage productions, including Oppenheimer and Game.[3] Bibby made her television debut in a 2020 episode of the BBC soap opera Doctors, where she portrayed Clara Bindon.

The role was previously played by Matilda Freeman, who had decided to leave the role earlier that year.
