Aubrey attended to King's College London, where she studied Classics and Archaeology. While there, however, her love of acting grew, and during a year studying in Italy where she joined a travelling theatre company, Juliet decided to apply for drama school on her return. She did, and went on to train for 3 years at Central School of Speech and Drama.
Her first job was with the Oxford Stage Company playing Miranda in The Tempest. The Italian director Roberto Faenza gave Juliet her first film role playing opposite Jean Hughes Anglade in Look to the Sky, a film produced by Elda Ferri, and set during the Nazi Holocaust. Juliet won the Davide Donatelli award for Best Actress for her role as Hannah. Antony Page and Louis Marks then cast Juliet as Dorothea in the BBC adaptation of Middlemarch opposite Rufus Sewell, for which she won a BAFTA for Best Actress, and The Broadcasting Press Guild Award for Best Actress. She then joined Haris Pasovic's Sarajevo Theatre Company. She appeared in several plays with the company all created through the actors' improvisation. She continued to build her career as a theatre actress, appearing next in Katie Mitchell's Ivanov at The National, and Trevor Nunn's Summerfolk, the 2 hander An Oak Tree for Karl James, Three Sisters, Twelfth Night, and Betrayal all for Chris White. Michael Winterbottom then cast her opposite Robert Carlyle in the much acclaimed film Go Now.
Her subsequent films include Welcome to Sarajevo, Food of Love (for which she won La Boule for Best Actress Award), The Lost Lover, Time to Love, Iris, The Constant Gardener and Still Crazy. The film was nominated for two Golden Globes. She is due to appear in the film Super Eruption in 2011.
Aubrey was born and brought up in Fleet, Hampshire, the daughter of Dr. Roland Aubrey and his wife, Sylvia. She is half Welsh and half English. She has two siblings.
In 2001 she married production designer Steve Ritchie, whom she met several years earlier while filming in Newcastle; they have two daughters.
