After the final he thanked the crowd for their supporting, including Prime Minister David Cameron, who was roundly booed as Murray tried to laugh off the audience reaction.
Prince William and the Duchess of Cambridge were in the Royal Box cheering on Murray alongside a host of celebrities including Benedict Cumberbatch, Lily James, Hugh Grant and Bradley Cooper.

She and Finn Henri Kontinen won the mixed doubles as Guernsey's Watson became the fourth British player to secure a title on Wimbledon's final day. Earlier Gordon Reid won the men's wheelchair singles title and Jordanne Whiley the women's wheelchair doubles.
After Murray's match, William and Kate congratulated the 29-year-old as he clutched the gilt trophy to his chest.
The couple asked him about his baby daughter Sophia, in an exchange caught by the BBC.
William said: 'How's your daughter?'
Murray replied: 'She's great. Last three nights slept through.'
William commented that had been 'a good omen'.
Murray returned the favour by inquiring about Princess Charlotte, saying: 'She's five months now... and yours?'
The answer could not be heard, but Murray went on to talk about serving, before Kate said: 'Many congratulations, it was a great game.'
William said: 'So pleased for you, well done,' and Kate added: 'You can relax with your family now.'
Murray also spoke to actor Benedict Cumberbatch and his wife Sophie Hunter.
He then went out on to the club balcony, where a cheering crowd of waiting tennis fans saw the triumphant Scot hold the trophy aloft for them.

Murray was booed when he thanked David Cameron for coming to watch him, prompting the Scot to say Mr Cameron, pictured, had 'an impossible job'
Speaking after the match, Murray said the victory was 'extra special' because of the 'tough losses' he has endured at Wimbledon over the years.
He said: 'I played really good stuff today I've had a great few weeks on grass. He [Raonic] had some unbelievable wins like in the semi. He is one of the hardest workers and is always trying to improve. He has an extremely nice team - very polite and well mannered. It's not always the case.'
Even the stoney-faced Ivan Lendl managed to crack a smile as Murray lifted the trophy.
Murray added: 'A big thank you to all of my team for the hard work they've put in to get me here and also my family. I love all of you. Thank you.
'I'm going to make sure i enjoy this more last time I was so relieved and I was so nervous and there was so much pressure I didn't get a chance to enjoy it as much, so with this one I'll make sure I will.'
Then came the moment that Mr Cameron did not enjoy so much.
Kate was overjoyed when Murray won the second set, with Prince William and Mr Khan both bursting into their own celebrations
The Duchess, pictured, has stood out today because of her passionate reactions to the action unfolding before her
But Mr Cameron has been even more expressive, looking worried for Murray when he was in trouble during the third set only to break into a smile when the Scot got himself out of danger
Murray said: 'Support has been amazing amazing atmosphere, lots of legends watching up there as well and its a pleasure to play in front of you. The Prime Minister of the country is here as well...Playing in a Wimbledon final is tough, but I wouldn't want to be Prime Minister. It's an impossible job.
'Thanks everyone for coming out and I'll see you again next year.'
Mr Cameron wrote on Twitter: 'Great to be at #Wimbledon to see @andy-murray's momentous win. A great day for British sport.'
Murray is worth around £58million currently through endorsements and commercial deals, according to the Sunday Times Rich List.
Sponsorship veterans said world No 2 Murray's beefed-up appeal comes from calming down his rants and sulks now he has married Kim, 28, and become father to Sophia, born in February.
Experts said Murray's fortune would rocket even if he loses due to having a wider appeal, as with Beckham, whose family wealth has rocketed to £240m since he retired from football due to his combined family appeal from wife Victoria and children.
Beckham's agent Simon Fuller also masterminds Murray's sponsorship partnerships, which already include a £15m deal with Sportswear firm Under Armour, as well as deals with Head, Jaguar and Standard Life.
Murray's wealth doubled from £32m before he won Wimbledon in 2013 to his current £58m, which includes a small slice for brother Jamie.
Veteran sponsorship consultant Nigel Currie, 55, whose former clients include Samsung, Barclays and Volkswagen, said: 'Murray is a very hot property.
'He would be looking at easily seeing his current worth double over the next three years.
'Sponsorship deals are attracting bigger and bigger sums for players and his money will keep going up.
'His family make him more and more marketable as he attracts wider media coverage now, as celebrity families do, and that makes him even more marketable.'
Marcel Knobil, 52, of marketing firm VeryFirstTo, who has worked with Coca Cola, Yamaha and Braun, said: 'As long as Murray maintains momentum, he will be looking at pushing £100m of value within two years, and more afterwards.

'It is his family values which are also helping him on that positive trajectory.
'What's key to Murray's attractiveness to sponsors is that his personality has become much more appealing.
'His personality has been tamed. He has lost his edge and is connecting with people better, interviews better, is approachable and warm.
'Simon Fuller's team have had that impact on his personality, and he is being very well nurtured by his management company.'
Murray was not the only Brit in action today three other finals featured home favourites.

'Super Sunday' could round off one of the most successful weekends in British tennis history after fellow Scot Gordon Reid won the inaugural Wimbledon men's singles wheelchair title, adding to the doubles he won on Saturday.
Reid, 24, has competed for Great Britain at the Paralympics in 2008 in the sport and also won the Australian Open wheelchair tournament in January.
He was rising through the junior tennis ranks when he contracted transverse myelitis in 2004 aged 13, a condition that inflames the spine and can result in loss of motor skills, particularly around the muscles that flex the legs and extend the arms.
A year later he took up wheelchair tennis and quickly made an impact, being nominated for BBC Young Sports Personality of the Year Award in 2006.
Thousands of fans poured through the Wimbledon gates to watch the action, with many queuing for days to get a grounds pass or one of around 500 tickets available for Court One.
Among them is Graeme Durno, 54, who was left fighting for his life after being hit by a van a month ago but started queuing on Wednesday, the day after he was released from hospital.
Murray became the first Brit to compete in 11 Grand Slam finals, eclipsing the previous record set by Fred Perry 80 years ago.

After a damp and drizzly start to the day the clouds parted allowing the fans on the hill to bask in glorious sunshine this afternoon
The sheer amount of people crammed into the area, pictured, meant fans had to adopt all manner of positions to watch the match
Speaking before the match, Murray said his new family life is a welcome respite from the intensity of the court.
He told the BBC: 'For the first time ever, tennis is probably more of a distraction from my home life than the other way around.
'Beforehand, in the build-up to a slam final, I'd always just be thinking about that match. I don't feel like that just now - I'm just looking forward to the next time I see Sophia and Kim.
'Sophia's already watched a bit of tennis with Kim at home over these last couple of weeks and maybe when she's older she'll want to come and see me play.
'I would like that; it would be nice for me in a selfish way. I'm sure she won't be that interested but it gives me a little bit of extra motivation to keep going when I get a bit older.'
While tickets for Sunday's Centre Court finale were available before the tournament for £175, debenture holders have been cashing in, with tickets to the final on sale for £21,000 on some sites.

There was plenty of positive reaction to the result on social media, with politicians, celebrities and athletes all quick to congratulate Murray.
Mr Cameron posted on his official Twitter account: 'Congratulations to @andy-murray on his second #Wimbledon title. What a fantastic performance and what a proud day for British tennis.'
Tennis fans and stars took to Twitter to praise Murray's success.
Murray's brother Jamie posted: 'Amazing. Amazing. Amazing. @andy-murray 2 wimbledon titles.'
Australian Pat Cash - who won Wimbledon in 1987 - wrote: '#Murray takes his 2nd #Wimbledon title with some of the best tennis I've seen! A truly inspired performance. Congratulations @andy-murray.'
British player Laura Robson - who crashed out in the first round - said: 'YESSSSSS. Unreal level for the whole tournament @andy-murray. Beyond impressive.'
Deputy Labour leader Tom Watson posted: 'Thank you @andy-murray. Genius.'
MP for Glasgow East Natalie McGarry said: 'Ya dancer! Our boy Andy Murray. Two #Wimbledon Grand Slams. Three Slams in total. Commiserations to Raonic. He has a great future.'
The Scot's former coach Amelie Mauresmo tweeted: 'Andyyyyyyyyyyy Fantastic achievement! Well deserved.'
Ms Sturgeon posted: 'Congratulations to @andy-murray!,' and alongside a picture of Murray holding the trophy aloft she wrote simply: 'CHAMPION!'

Scottish Conservative leader Ruth Davidson congratulated the Scot with a photo of herself and fiancee Jen Wilson pulling an impression of Murray's coach Ivan Lendl. The coach is famous for retaining an unmoved expression throughout Murray's highs and lows in a match.
Alongside her photo, Ms Davidson wrote: 'Get in, my son!!!! Our #LendlFaces are overcome with emotion at Chateau Wilson-Davidson. What a win! Well done Andy.'
Marathon world record holder Paula Radcliffe wrote: 'Great @andy-murray match, interview and humour. A pleasure to watch, enjoy, this Championship. #Wimbledon2016 #legend.'
There were cheers at 10am - despite the rain and stiff breeze - when stewards opened the queue and ushered people towards the security check.
Earlier on this morning one of the finest British traditions - the orderly queue - snaked its way along the edge of Wimbledon Park.
People lay out on picnic rugs, laughing and chatting about the day ahead, while children imagined being the next Murray or Serena Williams as they smashed forehands on a small makeshift court.
Some had even started on the Champagne as they waited under a drizzly sky to get through the Wimbledon gates. Amongst them were Michael McGee, 23, a professional poker player from Edinburgh and his girlfriend, student Alina Diba-Mauritzon, 20.
Many sprinted up the hill, more recently nicknamed 'Murray Mound', to make sure they could get a seat with a good view of the screens
The cleaning crew, pictured, have been put through their paces this year but were all smiles as they posed for a picture on the final day
Many in Murray's hometown of Dunblane, Scotland, got in the spirit of the occasion by donning facemasks of the Wimbledon favourite, pictured in the Dunblane Centre

The pair, who had been camping since Friday, had dinied on a breakfast of gin and tonics, Prosecco, nectarines and chocolate cookies.
Mr McGee said: 'It has been really good, really social, and everyone has been really friendly.'
The couple came last year but despite queueing for 10 hours missed out on tickets.
Mr McGee said: 'When we saw that Murray was getting to the final we assumed it was going to get very busy so decided to come early.'
As rain fell, Wendy Thompson, 44, and her daughter Rachel Campbell, 18, sheltered under an umbrella.
Ms Thompson, from near Edinburgh, said: 'Never mind the rain, the smiles will still be on our faces. I am very excited, I don't think that words can actually sum this up for us.
'This is something we have been wanting to do for a long time.

'A man next to us in the queue who was at the final in 2013 said he saw a saltire in the clouds then, and there has been one every day here since the semi-finals. Murray is going to do it.'
Behind them, perennial Wimbledon-goers Sue Callaghan, Kay Methven and Geoff Hughes swayed in each other's arms as they sang That's Amore.
The trio are arguably tennis's most ardent fans - Ms Callaghan, 63, has camped out for the Wimbledon fortnight for the last 45 years, while Mr Hughes, 58, has been doing so for 20 years. Ms Methven, 65, is by comparison a newcomer - she has only been coming for 11 years.
Ms Callaghan said: 'Murray is going to win in', with Mr Hughes adding, 'Probably in four sets'. A rueful Ms Metvhen said: 'I am still grieving for Federer, but I will go with these people.'
London schoolboy Yousef Maza, 11, who is helped by Mitcham-based charity Jigsaw4u after losing his mother early in life, tossed the coin ahead of the match.
