"I felt that it was important for my kids to know who I was going off with, pretending to be their mother," she said. "My son Henry had said to me, 'Mom, why in movies when you play somebody’s mom, why is it always a boy?' And I said, 'Wow, I don’t know. You know what? We’re going to have Lucas come over and you guys are going to meet him.' So Lucas came over, as did beautiful Kathryn Newton, who plays my older daughter. I would just send them down to the beach with my kids. 'Go for a swim, and I’ll see you guys in an hour and I’ll have lunch ready.'"
