<p><br /> Elton John has revealed he does not think he will be invited to the Royal Wedding, despite his close connection to Prince William's late mother, Princess Diana.<br /> </p><p><br /> "I don't really know the boys at all," the singer said.<br /> </p><p><br /> "They're tremendous boys, but I don't know them, it would be presumptuous of me to even talk about them. They are great boys, their mum would be very proud of them, but I don't know them so I'm not invited to the wedding, I would not expect to be invited to the wedding."<br /> </p><p><br /> The 63-year-old new dad was widely tipped to be asked to perform when Prince William marries Kate Middleton on April 29.<br /> </p><p><br /> Speaking as he promotes the film he produced with his husband David Furnish, Elton added: "I just wish them the happiest of lives together, they seem very happy. He's a really terrific man, William, and he's going to be a great king. And that's all I can say.<br /> </p><p><br /> "Because of my relationship with Princess Diana, the people automatically think I'm going to be invited, but these boys are their own people, they have their own friends, and I just hope that they have the best day and it's sunny and it's a great occasion for them."<br /> </p><p><br /> Elton and David's new film, Gnomeo and Juliet, is released in the UK on Friday 11 February.<br /> </p>
