British tabloids have claimed Kim Kardashian was rejected from the Queen's official Platinum Jubilee party, but a source close to the star says that's not the case.
The Daily Mail and The Mirror were among outlets that reported that Kardashian was in London this week with the hopes of attending the Platinum Party at the Palace on Saturday.
They claimed Kardashian asked for tickets for both herself and her boyfriend Pete Davidson but was turned down by Buckingham Palace and the BBC, which is broadcasting the event.
A source told the Daily Mail that Kardashian was "so determined to attend" that she was "trying to acquire tickets by other means — and has even said she doesn't mind if the tickets are 'not VIP.'"
"Kim rarely gets turned down to attend any event, so this has been quite surprising," they added. "Kim and Pete love the Royal Family and really wanted to be a part of this special celebration."

But a source close to the reality TV star told Insider the reports are false. They said Kardashian was in London for work earlier this week and is already back in Los Angeles.
News outlets and fans alike speculated whether Kardashian was in town for the Queen's Platinum Jubilee after she and Davidson were spotted in London on Monday night.
Paparazzi captured Kardashian and Davidson holding hands as they enjoyed a date night at the River Cafe in London.
The Platinum Party at the Palace will feature performances by the likes of Diana Ross, Alicia Keys, and Queen. David Beckman, Sir David Attenborough, Dame Julie Andrews, and members of the royal family will also make an appearance.
Up to 22,000 people will be in attendance at the event. According to Daily Mail, 10,000 tickets were distributed through a public ballot and 7,500 were given to essential workers.
