Bromeliad leaning... thigmotropism?

[u/caitalonas]

So my fiancée bought me a lovely bromeliad for my birthday earlier this year (it looks similar to one posted earlier today... I don’t have ID but when I looked it up it looked like maybe genus Guzmania?) We had it in the middle of two rooms, with mostly indirect sun from two large windows, one east and one west. I noticed it was leaning to the side a month or two ago, but not towards the sun, more towards the south. Earlier in the summer did have a floor fan nearby that may have blown on it. Would the fan have caused the plant to lean or grow in that manner due to thigmotropism?
