A connection from Lauren Sanchez's bachelorette party is said to have played a role in their attendance.

The source suggested that this wasn't an isolated incident, noting that Kris Jenner "often asks big events about" invites for the entire family.

On this particular occasion, it's alleged that Kris had aspirations for her daughters to encounter "rich and famous significant others" at the Bezos-Sanchez wedding.

An insider spilled the beans, confirming, "Lauren barely knows [Khloé, Kendall and Kylie] outside of simple pleasantries."
