Although Zeus had countless relationships with women, he only had one wife: Hera, the goddess of family and marriage. Hera often got angry at Zeus for having affairs with other women and punished them.

The stories of Zeus' number of Wives are quite confusing. But some agrees with this kind of order.

1st: Metis

2nd: Themis

3rd: Hera

But in some counterpart, or mostly original myths. Hera was the one and only wife of Zeus.

Hera was the wife and one of three sisters of Zeus in the Olympian pantheon of classical Greek Mythology. Her chief function was as the goddess of women and marriage. In Roman mythology, Juno was the equivalent mythical character. The cow, and later, the peacock were sacred to her. Hera's mother was Rhea and her father, Cronus.

Now that really depends on who you count as a "lover."

Do you want to include events like Zeus taking the form of a swan and raping a princess named Leda?

Not joking, now try to imagine it.

Zeus didn't have 12 wives, he had one: Hera. The Greeks, despite having a poor view of women, did not believe in polygamy (though the wealthy weren't always strictly monogamous). Most men had a single wife and indiscretions were looked upon poorly.
