King David is noted in the Bible as having eight wives. However, it is a widely known belief that King David had more wives than this, but they were not mentioned in the old testament. Since they were not specifically named, the information on these other wives is not readily available.

King David had 8 wives. If you are thinking of a king that had a large number of wives, then King Henry the 8th would be the best example. Though, the wives count of David is mainly portrayed in the Bible so you can either take it or leave it as fact.
