Calathea revival

Same plant 4 months apart. It's been a couple months with no new leaves growing and I nearly lost all hope, but it came through.

Not sure I can take any credit, but I added a tray with pebbles under the pot and add water to it daily.

Calathea advice on whether it is 2 plants or one with a big divergence from the main stem?

**EDIT AT THE BOTTOM**

This plant is my OG baby. My toxic ex would not let me have plants and this was the first I bought after I left him. It road tripped with me across Europe in the middle of winter in -20 at our destination and has thrived. This plant and I have a spirit bond. It embodies my thriving and growing. So I don’t want to do the wrong thing and accidentally kill it 🤣

I adore calathea and I know they are dramatic af (I called them su*c*dal plants) but if this is 2 plants in one albeit a little tangled, should they be seperated? Or should I just continue to repot and leave it as is? I have been really sick so I don’t want my foggy brain to make the wrong choice but I am bored and tending to my plants keeps me sane!

TIA for advice and help 🙏🏻

A link to a video to show the wobble of one’s side which is why I wondered if it was 2 plants. How do I help this?
