Real answer : only one (Hera) the Greeks only allowed one marriage, but he had an affair with all of the others.

Actually Zeus' first wife was Metis (Athena's mother). Metis was the first goddess of wisdom, well actually she was a Titan. Zeus ate her in order to stop her from having a son (a prophecy said Metis' son would overthrow him).

Zeus' second wife was Hera (goddess of marriage and women), his sister.

Themis is also said to be a wife of Zeus between the first, Metis and Hera. The reason he is credited with so many wives and loves is because as worship of the Greek gods spread the chief god of a town or people was made into one god, while his wife or consort was said to be a lover of Zeus - and so why Zeus had so many lovers and children.
