Assuming you mean Marcus Junius Brutus, one of Julius Caesar's assassins, then he had two wives. His first wife was Claudia Pulchra. He was married to her for about ten years before he divorced her suddenly to marry his second wife. His second wife was Porcia Catonis, his first cousin. Porcia is better known as she was the daughter of Cato and Brutus' wife during the assassination of Caesar. She died between 43/42 BC.

Augustus had three wives. He was marries to Clodia Pulchra from 42 BC to 40 BC who was the step daughter of Mac Antony. This marriage was arranged to strengthen the alliance between these two men. When Augustus asked for a divorce, her mother, Fulvia raised eight legions together with her brother-in-law and rebelled against him in support of Marc Antony; these two men had come into conflict.

Augustus was married to Scribonia from 40 BC to 38 BC. She was forced to divorce her husband, Publius Cornelius Scipio, and marry Augustus to cement an alliance with her niece's husband, Sextus Pompey, who had fought against Caesar. She bore Augustus' only natural child, Julia the Elder. Augustus divorced her on the day she gave birth.

Augustus married his third wife, Livia Drusilla, who already had a son, the future emperor Tiberius, and was pregnant with the second son, Nero Claudius Drusus, in 37 BC. It was said that he fell in love with her immediately. Livia was an advisor to her husband and influenced his policies. This was a privileged status which was unusual for women in Rome. She even petitioned him on behalf of others. She was also one of the very few Roman women who were given the title of Augusta (empress).

Yes, he did. In fact he had three wives and one daughter. When he was still known as Octavian, he married a daughter of Fulvia, Marc Antony's wife, for political purposes, but the marriage was never consummated. Next he married Scribinia, also for political purposes, and she was the mother of his only daughter, Julia. His third and lasting wife was Livia Drusilla. Even though, as said above, he had no male heir, he did adopt his grandsons and Livia's sons.
