Maybe he likes you. There is a defense mechanism in humans called "Reaction Formation". When they like someone and they know they cant have them, they tend to fight be rude or hurt .. they tend to behave opposite of what they feel.
I think that is what the case is here.

 Your friend may be blinded to this prat's bad behaviour through lurv. Give her the benefit of the doubt, just once, and tell her you find his behaviour hurtful and rude.
If she appears to not care well then, avoid them both as much as you can, don't hang around either of them, remain polite but apart, and leave them to the attention of each other.

 She's clearly not a friend, and definitely not a good one. What you should do is stop hanging around them. There's no need for a confrontation; she obviously doesn't care much for your friendship, and he obviously doesn't have much respect for her friends. I say leave those two in the dust, they deserve each other.
