Speaking at San Diego Comic-Con, in a panel that has since been typed up by ScreenRant, Marcus and McFeely put their feet firmly in the “Old Cap is in the main MCU and he attended Peggy's funeral” camp.
Marvel wouldn't just let Steve Rogers die after everything he's been through, so this special retirement was the perfect compromise for the character. It's charmingly symbolic that after everything they've been through, Steve and Peggy still managed to spend their entire lives together.
The Avengers: Endgame ending saw Steve Rogers use Pym particles to venture through the Quantum realm and travel through time in order to return all the Infinity Stones to their original place in the timeline. Then, instead of returning to the present, he chose to stay in the past and spend his life with Peggy Carter.
In the final minutes of that movie, Steve Rogers travels back in time to find young Peggy and live out the rest of his life with her. We know from Captain America: The Winter Soldier that Peggy got married and had two kids, and Endgame seems to confirm that her unseen husband was actually Steve Rogers post-time travel.
In Captain America: The Winter Soldier, CGI was used to allow Atwell to reprise her role as the now 90 year old Carter when Rogers visits her in her retirement home in 2014.
MCU Fan Theory [CONFIRMED] : Old Steve Rogers Was At Peggy Carter's Funeral In Civil War
How did Peggy not see Steve?
Peggy and Steve's time together was cut short during World War II after Steve crashed Red Skull's ship, but that wasn't the end of their story. They were reunited after Steve was unfrozen, but only for a short while before Peggy passed of old age.
The writers of "Avengers: Endgame" confirmed that Steve is the father of Peggy's children and that they likely have super soldier DNA. While Steve's children have not appeared in the MCU, in alternate universes he has a son named James Rogers and a daughter named Sarah, both of whom inherit his superhero abilities.

In-Universe Answers: I think Steve is responding modestly—mostly as a matter of personal propriety. He's choosing to remain discreet, keeping something private as opposed to bragging or engaging in “kiss and tell”—acting very much the gentleman from the era in which he originally came of age.
Now, if Peggy's happy family was shown five years before the latest Avengers film and Marvel still maintained that movie's choice, then those who think Captain America's ending makes no sense would have their arguments fueled by the fact that Steve Rogers' time travel erased Peggy's children in the new timeline he ...
Chris Evans Isn't Returning to Marvel Any Time Soon, But “Never Say Never” The man once known as Captain America talks about resisting a “cash grab” sequel and why he agrees with Quentin Tarantino about Marvel movies in a new GQ profile.
Who is older, Captain America or Bucky? In the MCU, James Buchanan “Bucky” Barnes(born March 10, 1917) is just over a year older than Steven Grant “Steve” Rogers(born July 4, 1918). In the comics, it's the opposite: Steve Rogers(born July 4, 1922) is three years or so older than Bucky(born 1925).
Thor. Thor, the god of Thunder, was undoubtedly the most powerful member of the original Avengers. His power continues to grow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Steve was “doing time as a Cap-sicle” for most of the period between WWII and the Avengers, while Bucky was kept in cryo-stasis when they didn't need him for a mission. At the very end of Avengers: Endgame, Captain America gives his shield to Sam Wilson.
I just wasn't sure if I was moving closer to myself or further away. And something inside me kept saying that I was getting further away—that something about this industry wasn't healthy. One person who convinced Evans to accept the role was Downey Jr., who kicked off the MCU in 2008.
The moment where Peggy Carter touches Steve's chest was unscripted, and the result of actress Hayley Atwell being genuinely impressed by Chris Evans' physique.
Bucky's second reason was self-analytical. During his joint therapy session with Sam, he revealed that Steve believed that Sam has what it takes to be the next Captain America, which is why he passed the shield to him.
Peggy in 1970 is almost fifty years old, the established Director of SHIELD. Yet as Steve gazes at her while she moves around her office with purpose, talking but unintelligibly (what she says is not important, only that she's there for Steve to see), the brief glances we see of her show a woman much younger.
Significantly changing his environment would force him to reacclimatize again, even if that's back in his original era. Secondly, Steve left Bucky in the modern world safe in the knowledge that his friend has The Falcon, Sam Wilson, by his side.
In the comics, the impetus for Rogers passing the mantel on to Sam Wilson is that his serum is neutralized. This causes Rogers to age rapidly and he appears as the old man he would have been if not for the super serum halting his aging.
We are not experts on time travel, but the Ancient One specifically states that when you take an Infinity Stone out of a timeline it creates a new timeline. So Steve going back and just being there would not create a new timeline.
Was Stan Lee supposed to be old Steve Rogers in Endgame?
In the end of Avengers: Endgame we see Steve go back in time to live out his life with Peggy, but we can assume he lays low as to not interfere with the future. But surely he would want to check and see how things were?
Hiding from soldiers looking for him, Steve sneaks into an office and sees an old photo of him on the desk. He then realizes the office belongs to Peggy and sees her through the window. During this time, Peggy would be almost 50 years old.
Sharon's surname is "Carter," which means she's from the Carter side of the family, not the Rogers one; she's the granddaughter of Peggy's brother or sister. She isn't a blood relation to Steve, and so this isn't incest.
No he did not marry Natasha. He married Peggy carter in the past who was his love interest in Captain America:The first avenger. Natasha died so others could get the soul stone.
