Iman Vellani plays Kamala Khan, Ms Marvel in the TV series of the same name and The Marvels movie. She has also been writing a number of Ms Marvel comic books as well. And in today's Marvel 85th Anniversary Special she takes that further than before, set in the 85th century, with stories of the past, of Marvel's Heroic Age written by future AI extrapolating from past objects. In this case Ms Marvel's scarf.
In a story by Iman Vellani, Sabir Pirazda and Stephen Byrne, Ms Marvel is portrayed as an adult but much more than that.

Though she does have a little help. And we learn more about the woman she has become and the sacrifices she has to make.
Kamala Khan is married with a kid as well. As if she needed any more responsibility. As to how much this is now established Marvel continuity? Well here's the thing.
