Not invited: Kim Kardashian’s dream of joining the official Platinum Jubilee celebrations in the UK have been dashed
But Buckingham Palace turned the U.S. couple down, as did publicists at the BBC, which will broadcast the show.
Kim was so determined to attend that a source told the Daily Mail she is trying to acquire tickets by other means — and has even said she doesn’t mind if the tickets are ‘not VIP’.
They said: ‘Kim rarely gets turned down to attend any event, so this has been quite surprising, especially as she doesn’t visit the UK often.
‘Kim and Pete love the Royal Family and really wanted to be a part of this special celebration.’

The likes of Queen, Diana Ross and Nile Rodgers will perform at the event, while Sir David Attenborough and David Beckham will make appearances.
Some 10,000 tickets were allocated via a public ballot, and 7,500 have been given to key workers, those in the Armed Forces, volunteers and charities.
Members of the Royal Family are expected to attend on behalf of the Queen, who is ‘pacing herself’ but will be watching on TV from Windsor Castle.
Earlier this week, Kardashian and Davidson were spotted having dinner at the River Cafe in West London and shopping in Mayfair.
Kim’s representatives declined to comment.
Understated look: Pete cut a casual figure in green tracksuit bottoms and a black graphic T-shirt, which he wore underneath a black hooded jumper
The reality star and her comedian beau landed in the UK in recent days and went jewellery shopping in London’s Mayfair on Tuesday.
The couple also enjoyed a typically low-key date night at the River Café in London after touching down in the UK.
It’s not clear if the Jubilee celebrations were the only reason for the couple’s trip to London.
Saturday Night Live star Pete has become known across the globe thanks to his relationship with megastar Kim.
They stayed mum on their relationship status until Pete called the media mogul his ‘girlfriend’ in an interview with People (the TV Show!) in February.
