Yes twice. Napoleon married Joséphine de Beauharnais in 1796, when he was twenty-six; she was a thirty-two-year old widow whose first husband had been executed during the Revolution. And after divorcing her for not being able to produce him an heir he got remarried. In March 1810, he married by proxy Marie Louise, Archduchess of Austria, and a great niece of Marie Antoinette; thus he had married into the German royal family. They remained married until his death, though she did not join him in exile on Elba and thereafter never saw her husband again. The couple had one child, Napoleon Francis Joseph Charles (1811–1832), known from birth as the King of Rome.
