@Hierophant11 . Sorry - we've tried everything we can think of here and can't find a way round this. It looks like asterisks may have to remain cuddled up to the rest of the text in posts. Do let us know if anyone finds a workaround though!

Thanks to everyone that helped! Glad it's sorted @Hazelnuttella

Hi @Hazelnuttella can you please let us know which device you're using and also which version of the site (desktop, mobile or app - and if app, iOS or android)? We'll happily take a look once we know a bit more.
