Is it possible to have a textblock with an inline clickable URL ?

I've seen this : Help with Adding a Hyperlink for a Text Block or Text Box[^]

But I need to bind the text before and after.

I'm not sure what is the best approach.

What I have tried:

I've looked at this, and I'm not sure about how to add the hyperlink :

 <TextBlock>
     <TextBlock.Text>
         <MultiBinding StringFormat="{}{0} {1}">
             <Binding Path="UrlMessage2" />
             <Binding Path="UrlMessage"/>  <!-- here should be the hyperlink-->
             <Binding Path="UrlMessage3" />
         </MultiBinding>
     </TextBlock.Text>
</TextBlock>

The example in the link, and I'm not sure how to bind the text before and after the hyperlink :

<TextBlock Name="TextBlockWithHyperlink">
    Text before the hyperlink 
    <Hyperlink 
         NavigateUri="http://www.google.com/"
        RequestNavigate="Hyperlink_RequestNavigate">
        Text to link to the website
    </Hyperlink>
    Text after the hyperlink
</TextBlock>

Use the TextBlock.Inlines collection. (It's what happens implicitly)

Simple enough:

XML

<TextBlock Name="TextBlockWithHyperlink">
    <Run Text="{Binding Path=UrlMessage2, Mode=OneWay}" />
    <Hyperlink NavigateUri="..." RequestNavigate="...">
        <Run Text="{Binding Path=UrlMessage, Mode=OneWay}" />
    </Hyperlink>
    <Run Text="{Binding Path=UrlMessage3, Mode=OneWay}" />
</TextBlock>
