Let it grow and it’ll space itself out

I grew these last year. They grow full like this and the fruits will sprout from up top. Your plant looks really healthy! Let it do its thing.

Hah, that’s a great looking pepper plant. Much better they look like this than tall and stringy.

Looks like it might have been topped earlier, so its got more outwards growth instead of just upwards, but that’s not a bad thing! Like others said it looks very healthy. If you’re worried about the inner branches getting air/circulation you can maybe try to prune them out as the season goes along, but leaving it as is will probably be fine.

Black pearl have dark purple foliage. Not sure what you have there, but it’s not a black pearl.
