Quite the opposite, I believe that Fleur is another "not what they 
first seem to be" character. Much like Snape or Sirius, Fleur is a 
character who seems to be someone to dislike at first but later it is 
revealed she is not what she seems. She shows humanity in the one 
thing she would miss more than anything else is her younger sister 
and she later talks to Harry and Ron and acts friendly. I think she 
will be back in future books and her character will be built upon 
more.
