Mbappe spent six years with PSG as the club tried in vain to end its European hoodoo.
The 26-year-old was a beaten finalist in 2020 when Bayern Munich broke French hearts.
Mbappe left for Real Madrid last summer after his contract expired in Paris.
And he sent a gracious message to his former employers as they beat him to a maiden Champions League title.
Taking to Instagram, Mbappe told his 124 million followers: “The big day has finally arrived.
“Victory – and in style – for an entire club. Congratulations @psg.”
Mbappe’s exit from Paris was soured by a spat over unpaid wages.
The forward made a claim of £46.5million against his former club, believing he was owed a signing bonus, his final three months’ salary and an “ethical” payment.

Enrique was asked about Mbappe following his team’s history-making win on Saturday.
The Spaniard replied: “We would have loved to have him, but his decision was different.”
He then added: “We’ve shown that we have stars at the service of the team, and not the other way around.”
The win was Enrique’s second Champions League triumph after leading Barcelona to glory 10 years ago.
He used the moment to pay tribute to youngest daughter Xana, who tragically died in 2019 at the age of nine from bone cancer.

Following his blockbuster move last summer, Mbappe has hit the ground running at the Bernabeu.
He scored 42 goals in 55 games across all competitions this term.
But Los Blancos went trophyless, missing out on LaLiga to rivals Barcelona and crashing out of the CL at the quarter final stage to Arsenal.
