Before anyone even bothers bringing it up: No, Zeus did not actually 'rape' Hera.
In fact, the Iliad directly states that Zeus and Hera were in a (consensual) romantic/sexual relationship in their youth.
It’s mentioned in the Iliad that when Hera uses her sex appeal to distract Zeus and help the Greeks on the battlefield it says that “he (Zeus) became inflamed with the same passionate desire for her that he had felt when they had first enjoyed each other’s embraces, and slept with one another without their dear parents knowing anything about it.”
The later cuckoo story likewise never actually mentions rape, but, like the myth of Persephone, people assume that it happened when it didn’t.
