That doesn't happen for me. On my systems, the old kernel image stays
around until I remove its matching linux-image-* package - which doesn't
happen automatically. (I presently have slightly over a dozen kernels
still in place, and probably bootable.)

What kernel package(s) are you working with, and what method (tool and
commands) are you using to upgrade them?
