Perfection red currant went flat

i have a perfection red currant in 3rd leaf. has been a upright grower since i got it. 3 days ago it started to lay down. all of it. it got plenty of water and other than it laying on the ground it looks good. ive seen black currant do this in a new plant then comes back with newer stronger canes in 2nd leaf… this one has been up right since i got it. its 3ft tall/ wide and has berries but even the branches without berries are leaning toward the ground. checked for cane damage and found none. leaves are a nice dark green. berries are starting to color. any idea whats going on?

I don’t have experience that cultivar, but is it flopping in all directions, or just in one?

everything flopped to the outside all around. very weird. im going to try and stake it with some rope around it to get it upright somewhat again today.
