The 37-year-old said: "I’m taking Jack to Jack’s Beach - which is what we named the little stretch of beach on an island up on the San Juan Islands where we got a place.
"We’re going to go back to the fort we built about a month and a half ago when we went for a short visit and see if that’s still there.
"If not, we’re going to build it again."
