I would recommend you to check the mysqld log file regarding the errors you have, which are triggering it to not to run.

which is in /bitnami/wordpress-5.8.1-2/mariadb/data/mysqld.log

in this file you will find detailed information about the error.

UPDATE

After attaching the log file, I discovered that this issue is similar to this one How to fix Error: MySQL shutdown unexpectedly on Xampp due to Plugin 'Aria', and solution might be applied following the steps:

  1. Remove aria_log_control file from /bitnami/wordpress-5.8.1-2/mariadb/data/
  2. Start the service
