Hi @Homa - you can enable this using the third-party tool rehype-raw.

By default, inline HTML in our Markdown content is escaped. Allowing raw HTML in messages can introduce security risks if content is not trusted. You only want to do this with sanitized or trusted content. We'll probably leave this as-is in the library for now.

Here's an example of how to do it (I tested this locally):

import rehypeRaw from 'rehype-raw';

...
  <Message
    name="Bot"
    role="bot"
    avatar={patternflyAvatar}
    content={`By default, inline HTML in Markdown is escaped and will not render as HTML.

With the \`rehype-raw\` plugin passed to \`additionalRehypePlugins\`, you can render approved HTML such as line breaks:

First line<br />Second line<br />Third line`}
    additionalRehypePlugins={[rehypeRaw]}
  />

I'm going to close this for now, but please let me know if you run into any problems.
