Louis XIV had two wives, not five, and several famous mistresses.
His first wife was Marie Therese of Austria.
His second, morganatic (meaning his wife could never become queen), marriage, was to Francoise Scarron, Madame de Maintenon. It was a secret marriage, and he remained devoted to her for the rest of his life.

If we're talking Louis XIV of France, called the Sun-King, he never married five times. He married once in 1660 Maria-Theresa of Austria.
He did however have children by several notable mistresses, including Françoise-Athénaïs de Rochechouart de Mortemart, Madame de Montespan and Louise Françoise de La Baume-le-Blanc
Duchesse de La Vallière et de Vaujours (Louise de La Vallière).
