also renders correctly as bold / bold-italic text.
It doesn’t matter what the first word after the asterisk is.
And when I just write plain text (no markdown) everything is fine.

coding in Visual Studio Code.
No.
I changed the writer field into a textarea in album.yml and rendered the field in the album.php template with <?= $page->text()->kirbytext() ?>. All fine.
The error is thrown right into the html of the site.
I wrote test, set it in italic and this appears:
Have you tried to use a debugging tool like Xdebug to try and follow the code execution? If you want, send me a zipped version of your project and I’ll try to debug this for you.
