Footer Text Box no longer accept html ?

Hi

I am having html in the footer text area and it used to accept html but does not seem to work properly right now 🙁

You can see it in action on my staging sever

http://bstpremiumthme.staging.wpengine.com/ , the output comes up as see the break characters \ in there , its messing up the html

so do you recon copying the footer.php to the child theme and editing that would be the best way to do this ?
