I would like to know why John Inigo Wright committed suicide.

If he was in Westminster when he committed suicide in 1820, there should be a coroner’s inquest report.

It might be worth your emailing the Muniment Room at Westminster Abbey, as they hold the original inquest reports for Westminster at this period. They are also on microfilm at Westminster Archives, if you can get there to look for yourself (your profile gives no clues as to your whereabouts).

You will need to give the Muniment Room the exact date of death, or as close as you can get.

Just to note that Frances Wright was buried with her father in Westminster Abbey.  https://www.westminster-abbey.org/abbey-commemorations/commemorations/richard-guise/

And there is a book outlining the burials there which discusses her dates of death, etc....  The Marriage, Baptismal and burial registers of the Collegiate or Abbey of St Peter, Westminster, by Joseph Lemuel Chester, 1876 Page 468 which lists her pertinent information.
