How to split a cell in a table in latex?

I am wanting to create a table as a header in LaTeX. 3 columns, the first cell must span two rows, the second cell must span two rows and the third cell must be split between the two rows. So 4 cells total but 3 columns like the picture below. Im having trouble with the spacing when I try and split the last column into two rows.

  • One first sketch:

    \documentclass{article}
\usepackage{multirow}

\begin{document}

\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|}
\hline
\multirow{2}{*}{Some text A} & \multirow{2}{*}{Some text B} & Some text C\\
\cline{3-3}
 & & Some text D\\
\hline
\end{tabular}

\end{document}

    This gives you:

    It is not clear to me if you want your middle column to be larger than the two on the sides. Anyway, see this other answer of mine!
