Not invited: Kim Kardashian’s dream of attending the UK’s official platinum anniversary celebrations has been dashed
But Buckingham Palace turned the US couple down, as did publicists for the BBC, which will carry the show.
Kim was so determined to attend that a source told the Daily Mail she is trying to get tickets through other means – and has even said she doesn’t mind if the tickets are “not VIP”.
They said: “Kim is rarely turned down to attend an event so this was quite surprising given she doesn’t visit the UK often.
“Kim and Pete love the Royal Family and were keen 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 perform.
Around 10,000 tickets were allocated via a public vote and 7,500 were given to key workers, members of the armed forces, volunteers and charities.
Members of the Royal Family are expected to be present on behalf of the Queen, who is “moving at pace” but will be watching on TV from Windsor Castle.
Earlier this week, Kardashian and Davidson were spotted dining at the River Cafe in west London and shopping in Mayfair.
Kim’s reps declined to comment.

The pair also enjoyed a typically low-key date night at the River Café in London after landing in the UK.
It’s not clear if the anniversary celebrations were the sole reason for the couple’s trip to London.
Saturday Night Live star Pete has become known around the world thanks to his relationship with megastar Kim.
They remained silent about their relationship status until Pete dubbed the media mogul his “girlfriend” in a February interview with People (the TV show!).
