Tenant wants to break lease - fear

[Elliot Larkin]

We have rented to a couple, they are not married but have been together over a year. Their lease began in April and is for 12 months, both people are listed on the lease together. I got a message from one of them saying that they need to get out of the lease asap - their partner has a temper and has caused damage to the unit, the tenant also sent photos of a hole in the wall, damaged door and trim, and something thrown in the kitchen staining the kitchen cabinets. 

I wanted to post to the community to get some input on what you would do, or have done in the past. So far they have been current on their rent.
