Tenant has vacated property but other tenant wants to stay

[Dominic Scatto]

Hey everyone!

I have a situation that is a first for me the property is in VA. The tenants that moved in a few months ago was a couple. The boyfriend ended up shattering my sliding glass door in a argument and I've been advised that they are splitting and the boyfriend has already moved out(well hasn't been seen at the property for roughly 3 weeks). I want to update the lease to remove the boyfriend. I want to make sure I do it correctly though. My question is can I just update the lease with just the girlfriend or would i need the boyfriend to sign an addendum?? I'm not sure if the boyfriend will sign anything at this point. Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks!
