I think it may have been from copying the quotes from another system I use on a different site. I tried adding a new quote that I typed out and used several apostrophes and they all went in fine, without the escape showing. Tried pasting from a notepad as well and that was fine too

I did update to the latest WP the other day when 4.6 was released, and the plugin was installed after that, so it is the latest as well. The Quotes Llama widget is set for author, source, and auto-refresh. Right now I’m using the Simple Bootstrap theme, I did try with the default 2016 theme as well, and it’s showing there as well. Seems it also does the same thing with “you’ll”, turning it into you\’ll.

… So, I took a look at the database, and apparently somewhere along the way the \ was inserted into the database preceding every ‘. Simple query fixed it..

Sorry for wasting your time, but thank you for responding so quickly!
