Mandy here:
Because Fleur had the audacity to kiss both boys in front of her.  
Ron and Harry are Hermione's boys, and no matter who she is loves, 
she feels a certain amount of ownership and responsibility toward 
both of them.  Just as Ron feels about Harry and Hermione, and Harry 
feels about Ron and Hermione.
