In the Ken10k episode,Kenny receives the omnitrix as its original design in the first ben10 series.BUT in the 8th season,9th epsiode of omniverse, the omnitrix kenny shows his father is the new version,shown in omniverse.so this future is different than the one shown in ken10k.

the moment gwen opened up a portal to the past and brought 10year olds ben and gwen,older gwen created a future for them different from her own(future gwen,ben10 series)in that episode 10year old ben learned to not be hero 24/7,so he changed even a little.the ken10k episode of the ben10os is canon to that first timeline in which gwen and ben never travelled to the future.

BUT the timeline has changed due to that 1 timetravel event.so now Kevin and Gwen are together,even in the ben10 omniverse episode,that takes place in the far future.

Just imagine it like a tree with branches.

Up to the point of the first timetravel portal,both future bens had the same timeline,but after the portal,each timeline has its own branch.each is canonical and existant,we the viewrs just follow the new branch(with the 10yerolds traveling to the future)

Profesor paradox explained it as crisscross time.
