Over the years, many strong and notable female characters have been featured in the hit series NCIS (Naval Criminal Investigative Services). Some of the most compelling female characters on NCIS have left, but others have remained for many seasons. They have all made an impact. We are left wondering what their lives would be like in real life.
10 Scottie Thompson as Dr. Jeanne Benoit
IN CHARACTER: Dr. Jeanne was introduced to the show in 2006 as Tony DiNozzo’s new girlfriend. As the show progressed it became clear that her father was Rene Benoit who was a well-known arms dealer. Jeanne managed to charm her team despite this. Fans of NCIS were anxiously waiting for Jeanne to return to Tony, as they had split before her departure in 2008.
IN REAL LIFE: The 37-year-old actress made a comeback in 2015 as Jeanne, but only for two episodes. Fans still enjoyed seeing her, however. Thompson has also done other things, such as appearing in the music video for Bon Jovi’s song “What do you get?” Thompson made her debut in movies like ‘Star Trek’, in which she played Nero’s wife, and Skyline’, in which she played Elaine. She also played Vivian in the series “12 Monkeys”.
9 Stephanie Mello as Cynthia Sumner
IN CHARACTER: Cynthia appeared in 13 episodes of ‘NCIS’ as a personal secretary to a Navy member. Cynthia, a smart secretary, was dressed in chic suits and wore mostly suits. She was only on the show for a very short time. Despite her short time on the show, she was able to have a turbulent relationship with Leroy Gibbs. Gibbs would often barge into the office without warning. Her believable character and admiration from fans were a great compliment.

Although Stephanie doesn’t walk around in suits every day, she does keep her hairstyle. Stephanie has curly, brown hair which is about shoulder-length.
