The club also confirmed that former England centre Rachael Burford will retire at the end of the season.
The 37-year-old World Cup winner, who earned 84 international caps between 2006 and 2019, signed her “final contract” with Harlequins in November.
“As I step into the next chapter of my life, I do so with a heart full of treasured memories and immense gratitude,” Burford wrote in an open letter, external to Quins fans.
“Though I will no longer be on the field I will always be a Harlequin at heart, cheering for the team and supporting the sport I love in every possible way.”
