almost always in ds3, characters commit suicide to stop themselves from going hollow. Upon showing that you are caring for irina sufficiently, you have essentially replaced eygon. After this he commits suicide since his only purpose was to defend her, and evidently in the ds3 universe if you exist without purpose you go hollow (hence, onionbro kills himself after killing yhorm, and anri goes hollow no matter what ending of his or her quest line you follow since aldrich is dead.). So yes he had to have committed suicide.
