She's gorgeous!! Have you thought of some how attaching it to the wall to straighten it?

Hi can I give you some advice, my opinion only. I would cut that even more, maybe another foot or two. When it puts out new branches, it may produce 1 or more. It will get top heavy and fall over. It’s painful to cut such a beautiful plant, but it will make it more beautiful. Don’t be scared to prune, it’s healthy for the plant.  
I cut mine which was over 8ft about 5weeks ago and it’s now put out 3 branches. Will look better as a tree than one tall branch.
