Makes sense since it’s highly unlikely the Celtic population was annihilated by the invading Anglo-Saxons.

They were probably subjugated by the Anglo-Saxons in the same way that the Anglo-Saxons were later subjugated by their Norman conquerors, but large-scale genocide seems unlikely. "Celtic" Scots and Welsh have plenty of Anglo-Saxon blood, while the English have plenty of Celtic blood.
