Harriet Philpin (1 November 1951 – T1 2025) was a British actress, the daughter of Welsh cartoonist William John Philpin Jones.
Philpin was best known in the UK for her appearances in the 1970s and 1980s as the wife of the 'Secret Lemonade Drinker' played by Julian Chagrin in commercials for R. White's Lemonade. In 2012, a nationwide search was held to track down the actress for a remake of the advert. She was traced to her new home in Ireland and was subsequently reunited with her co-star for the updated 'Secret Lemonade Licker' commercial to promote the brand's ice lollies.
