Something broke in her mind or her heart, and she no longer cared about consequences. After reading that something snapped in her, I woud expect 1 of 2 things to have happened: either she finally left him, and got out of the relationship, or she hurt him back, possibly even killed him. "Snapped" lets me know that she's been pushed suddenly past her limits, and some restraint on her actions and behavior has broken.
