Portfolio Project: Reddit Client problems

Hello everyone! I am working on the reddit client project. So far it’s been going great, but I encounter a problem. In the JSON of the comments of a reddit post, there is a property named body_html that look something like this:

"<div class=\"md\"><p>I really appreciate the response. I find System Design and these types of decisions very interesting. If you ask ChatGPT or Claude these questions, Go is never the answer. So your response has opened up a new rabbit hole to go down.</p>\n\n<p>I'm not sure that I will actually attempt this as a portfolio project but it is fun trying to understand the design decisions and weighting.</p>\n</div>"

My question is how can I turn this string into actual html components? I tried decodeURI() and decodeURIComponent() but neither worked. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
